Connor McDavid's Wife Lauren Makes A Huge Announcement That Has Possibly Decided Their Fate In Edmonton

Connor McDavid's future with the Edmonton Oilers appears well-cemented. Speculation regarding player contracts is nothing new, and last summer, a lot of chatter surrounded Leon Draisaitl's future with the club.

Many thought he'd test the waters elsewhere, but the prevailing discussion among hockey pundits centered around the cost of his inevitable contract extension. In the end, Leon Draisaitl elected to stay put in Edmonton and signed a monster deal.

With Connor McDavid's contract nearing the end of its term next season, familiar questions about his future have begun to arise. More recent events went some way towards quashing any doubt as to where McDavid's future will be.

McDavid's wife, Lauren, had some exciting news yesterday. She posted a string of photos and videos of herself outside what appears to be an upscale spot in downtown Edmonton with blueprints and signage for her new project, 'Bar Trove', opening this spring.

Another photo hinted at the name "Trove Living," suggesting that this might not be the biggest of her new endeavors. If she's likely got more plans ahead, that's a good sign that they plan to stay in the city for quite a while.

While details remain sparse, the announcement strongly suggests the McDavid family is so deeply invested in the Edmonton community that it's highly unlikely that they're seeking to move any time soon.
