Draisaitl Sets Up the Lone Goal as Oilers Edge Toronto
A four-shot night with one assist and no goal, in a 1-0 road win that left the Maple Leafs still looking for a way out of their slump.
Leon Draisaitl didn't score in Edmonton's 1-0 win in Toronto, but he did pick up an assist on the only goal of the night and finished plus 1.
He played 21:26 across 25 shifts. That was fifth among the Oilers skaters and second among their forwards, behind one other forward. He put four shots on net: three at even strength and one on the power play. His assist came at even strength. He had no power-play points.
It was a mostly ordinary night apart from the one assist. He had no hits, no blocks and no takeaways, and he gave the puck away once. His season average is 21.9 minutes, so the workload matched his norm. The shot count is in line with his year: 81 shots in 21 games, a bit under four a night.
The result keeps Edmonton at 15-3-3 and first in the Pacific. Toronto is 8-12-2, on a six-game losing streak.
