Edmonton Oilers forward Leon Draisaitl told reporters on Wednesday that his team won't be intimidated by the Florida Panthers' physical style of play in their upcoming Stanley Cup Final series that kicks off Saturday in Sunrise. "We can be a physical team too. Obviously, we like to play with the puck but we're certainly not intimidated by physicality." The Panthers have displayed a physical style of play not only this postseason but in their march to the Stanley Cup Final last spring.
