Leon Draisaitl Good To Go For Game 1 Versus Flames
3 years agoEdmonton Oilers forward Leon Draisaitl is expected to be in the lineup Wednesday against Calgary. The German superstar appeared to have suffered an ankle injury in Game 6 against Los Angeles last week and his status was uncertain for Game 7, but Draisaitl was in the lineup and even logged over 22 minutes of action. It was a sign that Edmonton's No. 29 is feeling just fine, but he hasn't skated with the team since then, which suggests that he is indeed carrying a knock. Draisaitl was in good form in the first round and ended up recording five goals and nine points. He crushed it during the regular season in the Battle of Alberta with 11 points in four games.
