[Music] so we have gotten word today from Insider Pierre LeBron that the Oilers have not started contract negotiations with Conor McDavid yet okay and they’re saying that they probably won’t even get a deal done on this July 1 which by the way is the earliest that the adinton Oilers could get a contract started with Conor McDavid now a lot of people are going to use this as an opportunity to troll my prediction has been as it always will which is that Ed he’s going to resign in Edmonton in my opinion I just can’t see them losing a player like this now I don’t like this information coming out because first off I would if I was the management I wouldn’t like this information coming out but the CEO literally told Pier LeBron this so you can give me whatever opinion you want on that um but the earlier you get this done with Conor McDavid the better okay the earlier you get it done the better simple as that because you know he’s not going to get any worse right this guy’s got over a, points in UN in under 700 games in under 700 games that’s how good he is so obviously I’m not going to use this an opportunity to troll because listen they’re going to get it done I absolutely believe they are going to get this contract done with him I think that he is going to have the franchise over a barrel you know what I mean like I think that he is going to get whatever the hell he wants like that’s just how good he is um he did put money back down on the table let’s not forget about that about $750,000 less he took you know now it doesn’t sound like a lot LA but last time he took less money um you know since this player has arrived in Edmonton they have been a perennial cup contending team you have a player like that you’re just a cup Contender it’s just really that simple but it is what it is you’re also going to have to pay him and he I listen a lot of people are trolling saying that he’s going to get 16 million he’s going to get 16 I’m not sure about that he already took less money to begin with I’m not sure about that I wonder if they could keep it under 50 now that might be a little bit hopeful but I I do think that they could possibly keep it under 15 let’s remember if this player went to unrestricted free agency he could get anything that he wants and I mean anything I mean you know what I mean he could get the max I think it’s like 20% that that a player can take I I believe that’s what it is now word is and everybody knows that he is very close with Leandra cidal um now that doesn’t mean that he is going to resign but again it’s not like the Oilers have been a terrible team like this is the biggest thing is players like McDavid they’re obsessed with winning right they don’t I if McDavid can win here he doesn’t care you know he’ll stay at Edmonton he’ll you know so if he believes that the Edmonton Oilers they have a chance to win then he does not care and he will resign there and that’s why I think they will resign like look guys they were this close a hair away from winning the Stanley Cup they were that close it was honestly I I I’m surprised they would even went that far but they proved that they are a competitive NHL team every single year now let’s remember I believe he still has two years while he is this year and then next year left on his deal and then the earliest that he could sign is July 1st and you right it’s the same thing that Mitch Marner can can already technically have a contract re or signed because the earliest that he could find sign is this last July um you know what I mean like again it’s the same thing with the Maple Leafs I really really believe that that contract is going to get done you know it just is what it is these guys are not going to again when we talk about John Taris leaving the Islanders the overwhelming statistics would tell us that players like this generally don’t leave their teams generally speaking obviously there are caveats here obviously there’s are outliers but when you have a top top top core player you know one of those 90 100 Point 120 130 you know those absolute monsters on the ice like McDavid they don’t move guys they simply don’t move so he’s not going anywhere that’s just my opinion I know a lot of leaf fans I’m not going to be the leaf fan that’s going to troll Edmonton fans I think that’s a little bit silly um he ain’t going anywhere this it’s not may I don’t know maybe it’s possible you can drop it in the comments but I just don’t think so I mean of course unless something absolutely catastrophic happens or I don’t know but it is what it is anyways uh also we have more trade speculation around the Edmonton Oilers around them looking for a defenseman so um yeah we we have heard for a while since that trade happened between um St Louis well not trade sorry the offer sheet situation happened between um Edmonton and St Louis we know they have been desperately looking for a defenseman and we got more worth there now from the speculation that I was reading is they’re not that picky about the handedness of the player they don’t really care if he’s a pure shutdown guy which is great to hear by the way you don’t want to be obsessed with him being a a have to be a shut down iy personally when I like when I talk about defenseman I like more of a two-way defenseman in my opinion I like more of a guy that can play both ends the ice and add a little bit of offense I have been going to proov I believe he is going to be an unrestricted free agent this year uh he is a guy that is going to give you 23 24 minutes like he would be perfect for the Oilers perfect for the ERS that’s a guy that you win a cup with you know the the two-way type guys but yes they’re not that on handedness the news came out today uh the in the the the um person that was The Insider didn’t want to say exactly name the defenseman it sounded like he knew exactly who the Oilers were targeting but I don’t know he for whatever reason he didn’t say but I I’ve said proov for a while I think proov would look fantastic who cares if he shoots right or left he’s just a really really freaking good defenseman um anyways I just want to make a quick video on the trade rumor and the lack of contract negotiation with Conor McDavid going to end this video if you could like comment and subscribe I would really appreciate it guys and have a great day
