Morgan Wallen has begun a viral trend of walking out with local stars to his events, and now, the two biggest Oilers stars are reportedly set to partake.

Morgan Wallen is one of the biggest stars in country music today, and next weekend, he'll be taking his tour to Edmonton following successful shows elsewhere in Canada during this current tour.

One trend that Wallen has begun has been walking out with local stars to these events, most recently doing so with Jose Bautista in Toronto, leaving many to speculate what will happen when he comes to Edmonton.

McDavid and Draisaitl reportedly set to partake in trend

Now, according to the 2 Mutts Hockey Podcast, it will be Connor McDavid and Leon Draisaitl that partake in the trend when Wallen brings his concert to Edmonton, as the two are currently the biggest stars in Edmonton after taking the team to back-to-back Stanley Cup Finals.

The 2 Mutts podcast have been wrong before however, as they recently guaranteed a McDavid extension on or before the date Draisaitl extended a year ago (September 3), deleting their posting about it since.

However, this one makes sense, as Wallen is one of the biggest stars in the world currently, and given how important both players are to the city of Edmonton, this would be a fun moment ahead of the new season.

Both have expressed their love for country music in the past as well, making this the perfect moment for all three men involved, and ahead of a brand new season, this will be a very fun way for the two superstars to kick start what may be a historic campaign.
