As the NHL season approaches, one question continues to dominate the conversation surrounding Connor McDavid and the Edmonton Oilers: will winning a Stanley Cup be the only factor in the star forward's decision to re-sign with the team?

However, despite his impressive individual achievements, the Oilers have yet to bring home the ultimate prize, leaving many to wonder if a championship is the key to securing McDavid's long-term commitment to the franchise.
