NHL Analyst Says The Oilers Need to Trade McDavid and Draisaitl
Despite the Edmonton Oilers having the best player of the world as in Connor McDavid, their success throughout the past nine seasons has been slow, and has only resulted in 3 playoff series won throughout that time.
Paul Bissonnette came to social media and spoke on his podcast regarding a ridiculous take, Bissonette is also an analyst for the NHL TNT channel, but may want to reconsider his profession after this take..
The former NHL tough guy thinks the Oilers will have to trade Draisaitl and McDavid if things don't turn around, which may seem crazy, but he made a few more points as well..
Connor McDavid is a unrestricted free agent in the 2025-26 season, where he'll have the right to sign with any NHL organization he'd like. Similar to Auston Matthews, if both players can't find playoff success, many wonder if they would choose to walk away?
