Oilers Have Timeline for Connor McDavid Extension, Reports Say
Reports are surfacing about the updated timeline for the Connor McDavid extension with the Edmonton Oilers.
“If I feel that there’s a good window to win here over and over again, then signing is no problem,” Connor McDavid said at the end of the season and before he took some personal time to relax and enjoy the wedding of his good friend Leon Draisaitl. It wasn’t a guarantee he was going to re-sign with the Edmonton Oilers, but it was pretty close.
Now, it looks like a deal with McDavid is around the corner. The Oilers might not yet know the terms of the contract or the AAV, but it does sound like they have a timeline on when this extension will get signed.

It sounds like the Oilers and McDavid will get on his extension right away, with the team and player both waiting until he’s in town to finalize things. Per a few reports on Saturday, next week might be when fans should expect a real update.
“Team Canada meets next week in Calgary,” said NHL insider Elliotte Friedman on the latest episode of the 32 Thoughts podcast. He added, “I would expect after Connor McDavid is done there and he goes back to Edmonton, they will work on getting this done.”
