Well he's still got 3 years on his contract and Drais has 2. They made a good move to grab Ekholm and that should continue to pay off for years to come (his own play + mentorship). McDavid is 26, Drais is 27, RNH is 29, Hyman 30, Kane 31. Nurse 28, Ekholm 32. Their core is all in their prime and they should be a threat for the next 2-3 years. The big question is if He & Drais will re-sign in 2+ years, when their core might be on the downside of their careers...
