Come wit it now!
It's probably something McDavid said in passing to a friend.
"Man I'm so tired of losing, I wish I was somewhere with a better roster"
Probably just an airing of frustration.

So the guy who fist pumps and mouths "f*** ya" when Drai tied it up last game wants out.... Sure, if someone I've never heard of in Toronto says so. I do think we we are as bad next year he might start to want out.

I doubt that he's happy with the way that things have gone these last 2 seasons, but he should be willing to tough it out for a little longer as long as there's light at the end of the tunnel.

Wishful thinking that started the day Toronto lost the McDavid lottery.

Toronto media are great at chasing players off the maple leafs,now it looks like they want to expand and see if they can chase players away from otherCanadian markets?

just a goofball
i wouldn't say he is looking to get out until year 6-7 of this current deal. they have to give him and the fans excited about something in the next 2-3 years though otherwise it could spiral out of control
Why should he be willing when the Oilers have continually made bad trade after bad trade. There's no light at the end of the tunnel, until we see positive moves it's more of the same OBC.
"Hearing whispers" means that the media is making it up? Well whatever helps you sleep at night, I'm sure McDavid is thrilled with what his first 4 seasons in the NHL has looked like.

Well for one thing he signed an 8 year $100 million contract with us. There will be a new GM and head coach in place next season and a lot of new players for him to play with next season. In the meantime he should work on his own game to take is game to another level goalscoring wise.

"Hearing whispers" could also mean Blair has Schizophrenia and should seek help.

Why is no one talking about Draisatl wanting out? This guy is an all-star stud a no one talks about poor Draisatl's career being wasted. Just sayin'

Shocking that Leaf fans need to come running here.
Like I said, wishful thinking.
Without sounding like a troll. Where is the light?. The cap is only going up so much to elevate your cap problem

He’s been farther than Matthews has been in the playoffs. I’m hearing whispers that Matthews wants out of Toronto.
McDavid is the last thing from the problem, be lucky he took a discount and didn't force you guys to fork up $14-15 million per year.
I hope the Oilers turn it around for McDavid's sake but a decade plus of poor decision making doesn't give you the benefit of the doubt until proper actions are taken. For all you know, Craig McTavish or Kevin Lowe could be named the new GM.

Could well be. His 2nd year was a damn good one. Last season was crap and this season while almost over is still one that the playoffs could happen if he goes beast mode. The team is not that far away from a playoff team. If the season ends and we return the same roster next season then most definitely he should question wtf management is doing.
