The Edmonton Oilers superstar Leon Draisaitl and rumours regarding him re-signing an extension are making waves. Just how much is the perennial top-ten point producer worth, and would he take an Edmonton discount. That is, knowing full well that the Edmonton Oilers are a Stanley Cup contender, and that he helped build them to this level. If it allows money to be spent elsewhere, would he do it?
The source of our rumours come from Sports Illustrated reporting what Draisaitl’s agent, Jiri Poner, said. When discussing the extension itself to be signed
“by the end of August, or it doesn’t work out at all.”
It further went on to add that Draisaitl is likely 30% underpaid on his current contract. Okay perhaps, but since when exactly. That is, if Draisaitl is expecting to be paid retrospectively. Regardless, it gives us an idea of the entire benefit package of riches that Draisaitl is looking for in his next contract. We may recall, at the conclusion of the playoffs, Draisaitl had powerful words for his love of Edmonton at that time. He said that he
“loves being an Oiler more than anything.”
It does appear that Draisaitl wants to stay in Edmonton, so will the Oilers management be able to make it happen?
