Connor McDavid has agreed to a six‑year extension with the Oilers worth $7.75 million per year, with the promise of winning the Stanley Cup.”**

 

 

However, no credible news outlet or NHL insider has confirmed this deal.

🔍 What the Trusted Reporting Says

1. McDavid enters final year of current deal
Connor McDavid is beginning the 2025–26 season on the final year of his eight‑year, US $100 million contract (AAV $12.5 million), which he signed in 2017 .

2. Genuine extension talks reportedly only just getting going
As of August 1, 2025, Oilers GM Stan Bowman confirmed no formal extension has been finalized. Early discussions have occurred, and Bowman is “very encouraged,” but there is no deal signed yet .

3. Speculated deal terms are far higher than $7.75 M
Multiple credible sources project McDavid’s potential AAV in the $16M to $17.5M range — which would make him the highest‑paid player in NHL history. Some insiders expect a 4‑year deal, not six, with the longer eight‑year term seen as less likely .

4. McDavid’s top priority: Winning the Stanley Cup
McDavid himself stated that winning is the “most important” consideration. He wants assurance that Edmonton has a realistic championship window before committing long term .

5. Fan and analyst speculation runs high
Trade rumor mills suggest teams like Toronto, Florida, and L.A. could be options should McDavid leave — but nothing is confirmed. Analysts widely agree trading McDavid would only occur if Edmonton can’t back up a championship promise .

📋 Summary Table

Claim Status

6‑year deal at $7.75 M/year ❌ Unverified, not supported by any legitimate report
McDavid extension negotiations ✅ Underway, but no deal signed as of August 1, 2025
Likely AAV 📈 $16M–$17.5M projected, record level
Term length speculation 🔄 Possible 4–year or 8–year deals, six not confirmed
Championship promise factor ✅ McDavid places a strong emphasis on winning a Cup
Possible departure ⚠️ Only if winning window fails to materialize; trade unlikely given loyalty stance

🧭 What Fans Should Know

The viral headline is not substantiated by reliable sources.

Contract talks are real, but both term and salary remain speculative, and certainly far above the rumored $7.75 million per year.

Connor McDavid is using his final contract year to assess whether Edmonton can build a team capable of delivering the Stanley Cup, and that’s the real pivot in these negotiations.

Edmonton’s GM has stated they’re optimistic and respectful of McDavid’s timeline — supporting the idea negotiations could wrap up this summer if both sides see a Cup window.

✅ Bottom line:

The allegation of a 6‑year extension at $7.75 M AAV with a promise of a Stanley Cup is not supported by any credible reporting. What is true is that McDavid is eligible to sign, talks are underway, and expectations strongly point to a shorter-term, record-breaking deal — but no agreement has been reached yet.

Let me know if you’d like a breakdown on projected cap implications, roster build needed to chase the Cup, or reactions from insiders and fans.
