Trade him to Buffalo for Thompson, Krebs, Rosen, & a 2025 2nd pick.
I’ll tell you this for free, under no circumstances are the Oilers trading Leon Draisaitl. Either he resigns or plays out his contract, that’s it.
Draisaitl will get 15mil. He's got how many 100+point seasons? Cap going up or not hes worth it.
Bouchard is an RFA meanwhile Leon is a UFA so that’s why Bouchard is on the back burner.
bruins
He'll sign the contract they've already agreed on the day after the new gm signs. He's not going anywhere. $12.875MX8
Trust me. Uncle Katz will take care of these boys well after their legs can skate.
..if the Oilers go to McDavid and ask..Leon or 13 million for ..??..Connor may believe he is the man and Skinner and Arvidson are helpers..
Crosby for Leon …..
Losers
.and Vancouver sucks.
Media/ this channel is trying to Hype up the Panic on UFA leon so they have content to make in the off season. Once there’s a GM in place contracts will heat up
Imagine if they lose both Bouchard and draisaitl with how the team is ran it’s not unrealistic 🤦♂️
The only reason media is talking about this is because Draisaitl is UFA. If he was a RFA this wouldn't even be a video
Trade vancouver for Petterson
Sign or trade? Duh. So lose him for nothing? LOL. At least $12mil. This shouldn't be a too hard. Pay him since he's been under paid for his entire current contract.
Call me cynical but as a Wings fan my bet is Holland signs him for league max.
With the lineup intact, the Oilers could win the Cup next June in much the same way the Panthers won the Cup this year after being runner up to the Golden Knights the year before.
Trade him to Calgary for Hubordough, shilington,valader, and a second rounder
Would not expect anything until August sometime. 12.5 would be a steal but expecting 13.5 at least.
We’re giving Drai whatever he wants, won’t be an issue.
He ain't going anywhere
I could see Leon waiting for McDavids extention and they both do a Toews & Kane, same contract essentially.
Draisital would be great to be in Buffalo with fellow German player J.J. Peterka
I've heard he possesses all the Biden cards. Does it work?
Seider and Leon in Detroit…..German Power
Why would he leave Edmonton he has same chance with them as any team he isn't going any where
The Oilers want to sign him. He will be signed…. Now find something else to talk about.
The Oil had a great run in the playoffs, we just signed some great free agents, we have made at least one trade that I believe will be positive in the near future. Us fans have never been happier or more excited.
DON’T mess this moment up for us. Thank you
I bet he will sign one year deal to match up with mcdavid
He was hoping to go into negotiations with a Stanley Cup under his belt . Money aside ,dude is arrogant and I think he has an issue playing in McDavid's shadow … It almost sounds to me like his agents will be looking for extra $ to makeup for their short comings from the last contract . i could see this going sideways fast …
Interesting…
Herm… interesting- I could see him as a big bad bruin…
He still has a year left on his contract he dosnt need to sign right now. He can take the summer and they can decide on an extension. Everyone needs to calm down I’m an oilers fan and I’m not even worried because I know he will resign. Plus management be stupid to trade him right now when they are on the cup push.
