Leon Draisaitl Wins First Rocket Richard Trophy
1 day agoEdmonton Oilers forward Leon Draisaitl (undisclosed) has taken home the Rocket Richard Trophy as the NHL's leading goal-scorer in 2024-25. He finished at the top of the pile for the first time in his career, potting 52 goals in 71 contests.

Draisaitl lit the lamp in 42 of his 71 outings and set a single-season NHL record with six overtime goals.

Over the course of the campaign, Draisaitl added 54 assists to his tally, finishing with 106 points. This marks his fourth consecutive season with at least 100 points, and his sixth overall.
