Add The Sporting News as a Preferred Source by clicking here.Connor McDavid has two years left on his contract with the Edmonton Oilers.AdvertisementAdvertisementAdvertisementAnytime that anything goes a bit wrong in the next couple seasons, he’ll be thrown into trade rumors.A new one emerged this week, and it involves the Philadelphia Flyers.Former Flyers player Todd Fedoruk appeared on 97.5 FM in Philadelphia and had this to say about the possibility:”He is going to be a player who will be calling teams. His agent is going to be looking for him to go places. There are rumors that Philadelphia is a place that Connor McDavid wants to go.”MORE:How a 3-team Dylan Larkin, Jason Robertson trade could workOn the front end, Fedoruk might be right. McDavid signed a two-year extension (for these two years ahead) to give the Oilers a little bit of a longer chance to win with him.AdvertisementAdvertisementAdvertisementNot taking a longer deal, though, makes clear that McDavid knows his long-term future might be elsewhere, particularly if Edmonton fails to win anything of note in the next couple seasons.Would the Flyers actually be a destination? They’d be a lot different for the Canadian superstar than the Oilers are.The Toronto Maple Leafs are a team that always come up for McDavid, although that could also be the media machine talking rather than anything particularly legitimate.It certainly makes sense that the Flyers would want McDavid. Who wouldn’t?It would be much bigger news if, as this develops further, McDavid singles out Philadelphia as a place he wants to go.
