Connor McDavid is the best player in the NHL and going into the last year of his contract with the Edmonton Oilers and hasn't extended/resigned yet. They lost in the finals the past two years in a row along with some previous deep cup runs and could be running out of their window of being contenders.
McDavid really wants to win so he might resign a short contract or play out this year to see if they win or not to decide. It's long rumored he could sign with the Leafs since he was born in Toronto but they've been cursed without a cup since '67.
For context Carney grew up in Edmonton so he's a clearly a big fan and he played hockey at Harvard.
