Leon Draisaitl Could Be Back In Action Saturday
2 days agoEdmonton Oilers forward Leon Draisaitl (undisclosed) seems ready to return to the lineup for Saturday's Battle of Alberta against the Calgary Flames. The German superstar has missed four games due to an undisclosed injury. However, Draisaitl is now on the brink of returning after participating in regular line rushes Saturday morning. Oilers head coach Kris Knoblauch has stated that "there's a good chance" Draisaitl will play in Saturday's contest. With Connor McDavid (lower body) still sidelined, Draisaitl is set to serve as the first-line center, flanked by Vasily Podkolzin and Viktor Arvidsson. Draisaitl has posted his fourth consecutive 100-point season, notching 49 goals and 52 assists in 68 appearances.
