Edmonton Oilers defeated the Nashville Predators in last night’s NHL game with a score of 3-1. However, the victory was overshadowed by an unfortunate setback, namely the team’s superstar Leon Draisaitl was injured.
Draisaitl was targeted by a hit from Ozzy Wiesblatt in front of the Nashville bench during the first period. Draisaitl injured himself as a result of the hit and ultimately had to leave the game. He managed to play just over three minutes in the match and scored a goal before his injury.
More information about Draisaitl’s situation will be available later.
This season, Draisaitl has amassed 97 points in 65 games with a scoring line of 35+62, placing him fourth in the NHL scoring race.
Leon Draisaitl appeared to be injured after taking a hard hit early in the first period from Ozzy Wiesblatt.
Draisaitl was not on the bench to start the second, and didn't play the rest of the game. Kris Knoblauch had no update on his status after the game.
