Connor McDavid of the Edmonton Oilers and star Auston Matthews of the Toronto Maple Leafs are two of the finest players in the league right now, yet neither player’s name is engraved on the Stanley Cup Trophy. After seeing the two NHL stars working out together on the ice in Munich, many fans, especially in Toronto, began to speculate about a future team-up.’Connor McDavid training with future teammate Austin Matthew as they get ready for the Toronto Maple Leafs’ #LeafsForever NHL season in 2027–2028′ is the new caption.
It’s difficult to see either McDavid or Matthews being dealt anytime soon to create such a fantastic tandem. Matthews recently became the newest captain of Toronto after agreeing to a four-year contract extension with the team last year. Despite not having a championship to show for it, McDavid, on the other hand, is still at the pinnacle of his hockey abilities. In the previous season, Edmonton nearly won the Stanley Cup after forcing the Florida Panthers to seven games in the Finals. The Oilers can maintain their optimism that they will soon win the Cup since they have one of the greatest players on the planet on their squad. In contrast, the three-time Hart Memorial Trophy winner, who will just be 29 years old, will be a free agent in the summer of 2026. The optimum moment for Toronto to get McDavid to the Leafs seems to be 2026, assuming that’s what Maple Leafs supporters want to see. In the 2023–24 campaign, McDavid scored 132 points (32 goals, 100 assists), while Matthews scored 107 points (69 goals, 38 assists).
