Leon Draisaitl got PAID. The 28-year-old forward became the highest paid player in the NHL on Tuesday when he signed an eight-year, $112 million contract with the Edmonton Oilers. The $14 million AAV surpasses Auston Matthews as highest in the league. Was this an overpay? Is this the key to Edmonton getting over the hump and finally winning the Stanley Cup? Petey and Leah discuss the Draisaitl deal, the Seth Jarvis signing and the latest news around the NHL and in Arizona hockey.
