Major Update Regarding Leon Draisaitl's future with Edmonton
You would think that Leon Draisaitl and Connor McDavid would be on the outs after their consistent playoff appearances, but no success, right?
"I think Draisaitl is going to stay...I'm saying that right now. I think Draisaitl is going to stay. If things stay the same, I don't think he'll go anywhere."
Elliotte Friedman, NHL Insider, believes Draisaitl will continue to compete in Orange and Blue.
He probably doesn't feel comfortable leaving Edmonton after he's done so well there.
With McDavid and Draisaitl being a league phenomenon, combining for 281 points and Draisaitl contributing 128 points, they're focused on winning the Western Conference in 2023-2024.
We don't know if Draisaitl will change his mind or leave for greener pastures, but for now, we assume he's here to stay.
