Connor McDavid has only one year remaining on his contract with the Edmonton Oilers, and there has been some talk of him potentially leaving the franchise after coming up short yet again in the Stanley Cup Final. It does not sound like the three-time Hart Trophy winner has ruled that out.
McDavid was asked on Thursday if he feels he has “unfinished business” with the Oilers. He said “absolutely” and spoke about how much work Edmonton’s current core has put in while pursuing a championship.
There was one particular comment, however, that has Oilers fans feeling rather nervous.
“We’re holding this together, trying to get it over that finish line. With that being said, ultimately, I still need to do what’s best for me and my family and that’s who you have to take care of first,” McDavid said. “But of course there’s unfinished business here, yeah.”
