- Jay Recher, a reporter covering the team, outlined a major trade scenario that would send Connor McDavid to the Tampa Bay Lightning, involving several players including star center Brayden Point.

- McDavid recently stated, "I'm not in a rush to make any decision," emphasizing that winning is his top priority and that he wants to see a strong short- and long-term team plan.
