Why It Matters
Draisaitl hasn’t played since a lower body injury against the Nashville Predators on March 15. The Oilers have five games remaining in the regular season and are embroiled in a tight race with the Anaheim Ducks for the Pacific Division title. Draisaitl has 97 points in 65 games and had gone to his native Germany to see a specialist.
