Leon Draisaitl signs 8 years



Leon Draisaitl isn't going anywhere.

The Edmonton Oilers signed the superstar center to an eight-year contract extension with an average annual value of $14 million, the team announced Tuesday.

The contract begins in 2025-26. Draisaitl is entering the final year of his previous deal, which paid him $8.5 million annually, and he could've hit unrestricted free agency in 2025.
