Connor McDavid has signed a contract extension with the Oilers

We've been talking about this one for most of the summer, but now we've reached the finish line: Connor McDavid signed a contract extension with the Oilers today. The Edmonton club captain wanted to stay, but we also knew he wanted to win. Clearly, Oilers management have sold him on a plan that he likes, and that allows him to believe he has a chance of lifting the Stanley Cup in Canada.

McDavid deal agreed to.
