Edmonton Oilers: Draisaitl Hot, Davidson Traveling and More

The Edmonton Oilers will be looking for their third straight win Sunday when they take on the Minnesota Wild.

Also, Leon Draisaitl will look to stay hot, and Edmonton is close to getting back one of its top defensemen.

Draisaitl’s Found His Place

The German winger started off the season with mixed reviews, slotting in as the third line centre. He couldn’t generate too much offense and seemed to struggle to find his touch. With Drake Caggiula coming in on the bottom six, Draisaitl got the opportunity to move back to the wing.

Playing alongside Connor McDavid and Milan Lucic, Draisaitl’s found more opportunities to create chances and get pucks on net.
