The Edmonton Oilers are hoping to wrap up a contract extension for superstar forward Connor McDavid, but as of yet, no new deal has been reached between the two sides. Ideally, the Oilers will have him locked up before puck drops on the 2025-26 season, and McDavid was asked about how far along those negotiations are during a media address for Team Canada.
"Yeah, not even a softball Olympic question for me to start. But that's okay, right into it," joked McDavid, via Sportsnet. "I said at the start of June I had every intention of taking my time with it, and I still feel the same way... I have every intention to win in Edmonton. That's my only focus."
