McDavid Is In No Rush to Sign a New Deal while the Blackhawks & Mammoth Hold the Key to the Draft

The Edmonton Oilers enter a critical offseason after losing in the Stanley Cup Final for the second straight year. Superstar forward Connor McDavid has already indicated he's in no rush to sign an extension with the team. Nick Zararis of Locked On Oilers discusses that impact that will have, plus the goaltending situation and who is expected to be moved to free up some badly needed cap space. The Chicago Blackhawks may be the lynchpin of the 2025 NHL Draft as they hold the third overall pick. Will they keep it or trade it as rumors fly around concerning possible moves. Jack Bushman of Locked On Blackhawks joins us to discuss the Blackhawks plans for the draft and the offseason and what the next step is in their rebuild. The Utah Mammoth moved up to the fourth pick in the 2025 NHL Draft and they face a tough decision whether they keep the pick or try to make an immediate improvement to their roster. Robyn Leano of Locked On Mammoth joins us to discuss what the team is likely to do and what their biggest needs are if they hope to return to the playoffs next season.
