## Resource

Connor McDavid is staying put in Edmonton — no way he’s heading to Denver. Insider Bob Stauffer confirms the superstar is locked in for a seven-year max extension, cementing his future with the Oilers through his prime. He’ll continue teaming up with Leon Draisaitl, the core of Edmonton’s rebuild. Meanwhile, Mike Babcock could be returning as coach, with Stauffer saying the entire organization supports him. The Oilers are also embracing player empowerment, inspired by the NBA model, to boost commitment. With McDavid just winning his fifth Ted Lindsay Award and currently on a $12.5M deal, this new extension makes sense — and the Oilers are clearly all-in on keeping their franchise cornerstone.
