The Oilers and Wild game got heated last night with multiple controversial incidents, and while some insider suggested extra discipline for Ryan Hartman's slewfoot on Leon Draisaitl, no penalty will come.

When Leon Draisaitl won his first Hart Trophy in 2019-20, he made his case during a stretch when teammate Connor McDavid was out with an injury. The Oilers had missed the playoffs in back-to-back years in 2017-18 and 2018-19 and found themselves back in the mix in 2019-20 after a hot start to the season.

Draisaitl scored a goal on four shots and added an assist in Tuesday's 3-2 loss to the Capitals.

Connor McDavid isn’t expected to face any supplemental discipline from the NHL’s Department of Player Safety after elbowing Minnesota Wild winger Marcus Johansson, Daily Faceoff’s Frank Seravalli reported Thursday.

The Wild held two separate leads before falling to Connor McDavid and the Oilers, losing Marcus Johansson along the way.

Edmonton Oilers superstar Leon Draisaitl scored his 29th goal in the first five minute of a game in a 3-2 loss to the Washington Capitals.

Connor McDavid had two goals and an assist to move into second place on the Edmonton Oilers’ all-time points list in a 5-3 win against the Minnesota Wild at Xcel Energy Center on Wednesday.

With Eriksson Ek set to line up against McDavid and/or Draisaitl all night, and the Oilers allowing just 2.48 goals per game with a league-best 88.1 penalty-kill percentage through their past 29 games, this is a nightmare matchup for the Minny center.

Leon Draisaitl currently leads the NHL goal-scoring race as he has found the back of the net 31 times this season.

Two teams that are among the league leaders in wins and points will clash at the Xcel Energy Center on Wednesday night.
