You know at some point he's going to making bank from oscar meyer. hahaha yeah, pretty sure he starts hot dog franchise even before he retires from NHL. What a lucky bastard.

Inflation is a bitch. so now Oilers have 10 forwards below 2mln and one of them is going from 1mln to 12.5 next season. It will be very hard for them to balance their roster 1 year from now. | ||

Anchooorrrrrs awaaaaaayyyyy edit: It would have been nice to see Draisaitl run his own line for more than 20 seconds before backing up the garbage truck full of money, but it beats losing him. They're paying for potential, but even if he hits the low end of his projected ability (based on his consistent progression), he can outperform that contract. edit2: I guess the window for the Oilers to try and win a cup starts now. Sucks because they are still one Cam Talbot groin-pull away from another high draft pick, lol. | ||
