Cool graphic….

Leon Draisaitl got married this weekend.


When Gretzky got married, the spectacle and mass media attention was akin to a royal wedding.
 
Does anyone have access to this YYC centric publication? I’m curious to read about the “Oilers charity” article.

Have seen a few statues unveiled recently, including a cool one today of Adrian Beltre and it got me wondering why the Oilers really only have the Wayne Gretzky statue. I get you probably don’t want to have as many statues even as say numbers retired but there have been some pretty incredible Oilers greats like Messier that don’t have one.

I can’t imagine it’s something fans wouldn’t enjoy seeing but any thoughts on why so rare? McDavid better get one once his playing days are over.
 
TSN: It's a big story and obviously Oiler fans are following along closely. I'm sure it's occupying a lot of your time as well. We haven't heard from you for a week or so. Any update on where things are at?

McDavid: “No, no update and status quo. I'm sure people are gonna be sick of hearing me say this, but they don't need to be sick of hearing me say this because you keep asking. But it's the same. I'm in no rush, working through it, again, as I said, with my family, with Lauren, and with my agent. There's no grand master plan here. It's just simply this is a big decision for me – a big decision for not only my life but my playing career. I've been playing hockey since I was two years old. Everything I've put into my life's work is hockey and this is a big decision in that, so I want to get it right – not only for me but for what's best for the organization. So, a lot of thought going into it and I think people should appreciate that because when it's all said and done we're not going to be feeling like, “Oh we rushed into anything." It's going to be well thought out for both sides, as I'm sure the Oilers are doing as well, so I think people can appreciate the effort behind it.
