In the last week-plus, the Edmonton Oilers have lost the two most explosive offensive talents in hockey with injuries ongoing to Connor McDavid and Leon

It is uncertain when exactly McDavid was injured; he had six shifts in the second period against Winnipeg, with his final shift lasting 18 seconds before returning to the bench at 19:03. McDavid spoke with Oilers head athletic therapist T.D. Forss on the bench before the end of the period and did not return for the third.

The Edmonton Oilers are going to be without two of their biggest stars for the foreseeable future. According to Jason Gregor of Daily Faceoff, forwards Leon Draisaitl and Connor McDavid are going to miss at least the next three games due to recent injuries.
