Oilers' Leon Draisaitl: Slated to play in Game 1
Draisaitl (undisclosed) is expected to be in the lineup for Game 1 against the Kings on Monday, Derek Van Diest of NHL.com reported Saturday.
Drasaitl appeared in only three of Edmonton's final 14 games, finishing the 2024-25 regular season with 106 points and a league-leading 52 goals in 71 appearances. He will occupy a top-six role and skate on the first power-play combination versus the Kings in Game 1.

Oilers' Leon Draisaitl: Officially ruled out versus Sharks
Draisaitl (undisclosed) will not be in the lineup against San Jose on Wednesday, Max Miller of NHL.com reports.
While Draisaitl won't be available for the regular-season finale, head coach Kris Knoblauch told reporters he expects the German winger to be back for Game 1 versus the Kings. Despite playing in just 71 games this year, Draisaitl still managed to top the 100-point mark for the sixth time in the last seven years -- with the lone miss coming during the COVID-shortened 2020-21 season.

Oilers' Leon Draisaitl: Won't play against Los Angeles
Draisaitl (undisclosed) has been ruled out for Monday's game against the Kings, Jason Gregor of Sports 1440 Edmonton reports.
Draisaitl continues to deal with an undisclosed injury, and he'll be unavailable for the penultimate game of the regular season. His final chance to suit up before the start of the playoffs will be Wednesday in San Jose, and it's not yet clear whether he'll be ready for postseason play if he's unavailable against the Sharks. The 29-year-old has been a stellar contributor when healthy this season, logging 52 goals, 54 assists and 34 PIM while averaging 21:31 of ice time over 71 appearances.

Oilers' Leon Draisaitl: Remains unavailable
Draisaitl (undisclosed) won't play against Winnipeg on Sunday and is questionable to face the Kings on Monday, according to head coach Kris Knoblauch.
Draisaitl may be out for the remainder of the regular season, making his availability for the beginning of the playoffs unclear. He will miss his fifth straight game versus the Jets on Sunday, and he has played in only three of Edmonton's last 11 games. Draisaitl has amassed 52 goals, 106 points and 240 shots on net in 71 appearances this season.

Oilers' Leon Draisaitl: Might be available for Sunday
Draisaitl (undisclosed) might make his return Sunday versus Winnipeg, Jason Gregor of Sports 1440 Edmonton reports Saturday.
Draisaitl accompanied the Oilers to Winnipeg and is close to returning. He's missed Edmonton's past four games and eight of the team's last 11 outings. Draisaitl has 52 goals and 106 points in 71 appearances in 2024-25, and the 29-year-old's a lock to serve in a top-six capacity and feature on the first power-play unit once he's healthy.

Oilers' Leon Draisaitl: Not available Friday
Draisaitl (undisclosed) will not be in the lineup versus San Jose on Friday, according to Daniel Nugent-Bowman of The Athletic.
Draisaitl will miss his fourth straight game and eighth contest in Edmonton's last 11 outings. He struck for three goals and two assists in three games between injuries, giving him 52 goals and 54 assists over 71 games. He has surpassed the 100-point mark in six of his last seven seasons, with 84 points coming in 56 appearances during the COVID-shortened 2020-21 campaign.

Oilers' Leon Draisaitl: Won't play against St. Louis
Draisaitl (undisclosed) has been ruled out for Wednesday's game against St. Louis, Ryan Rishaug of TSN reports.
Draisaitl will be unavailable for a third consecutive game, and he remains day-to-day. Head coach Kris Knoblauch said Wednesday that he expects that Draisaitl will be back by the end of the regular season, but he could miss up to another week, which means that he may not get much time back on the ice before the start of the playoffs.

Oilers' Leon Draisaitl: Unavailable for Saturday
Draisaitl (undisclosed) will miss Saturday's tilt against Los Angeles, per Oilers play-by-play announcer Jack Michaels on Friday.
Draisaitl is also unlikely to play Monday versus Anaheim, but he's expected to be back before the playoffs. The 29-year-old has 52 goals and 106 points in 71 outings in 2024-25. Connor McDavid (lower body) also remains out, so Ryan Nugent-Hopkins and Adam Henrique are projected to be the Oilers' top-two centers versus the Kings.

Oilers' Leon Draisaitl: Leaves Thursday's game
Draisaitl won't return to Thursday's game versus the Sharks, Derek Van Diest of NHL.com reports.
Van Diest indicates this may be an aggravation of Draisaitl's previous injury that recently cost him four games in late March, but the Oilers have not provided a specific update. Draisaitl picked up a power-play assist prior to his exit Thursday, giving him five points over three contests since returning from that previous injury. Once again, the Oilers will be cautious with one of their most important players leading up to the playoffs, as they'll want him as close to 100 percent as possible when the postseason begins.

Oilers' Leon Draisaitl: Scores go-ahead goal on power play
Draisaitl scored a power-play goal on two shots and blocked two shots in Tuesday's 3-2 win over the Golden Knights.
Draisaitl has three goals, one assist and 10 shots over two contests since returning from an undisclosed injury. The 29-year-old center put the Oilers up 2-1 in the second period with his tally. For the season, he's up to 52 goals, matching his second-best total in his career. He's recorded 105 points (32 on the power play), 239 shots on net and a plus-33 rating over 70 appearances.

Oilers' Leon Draisaitl: Plays hero in overtime win
Draisaitl scored twice on eight shots, added an assist and went plus-3 in Saturday's 3-2 overtime win over the Flames.
Draisaitl tied the game at 2-2 with 3:12 left in the third period, then scored 2:25 into overtime to complete the Oilers' comeback against their provincial rivals. This was his first game back after missing four contests due to an undisclosed injury. Draisaitl led the Oilers' forwards with 22:24 of ice time, so he's pretty close to 100 percent. The 29-year-old crossed the 50-goal mark this season -- he's the first to do so in 2024-25 and now sits at 51 goals, 53 helpers, 237 shots on net and a plus-33 rating across 69 appearances. This is his fourth 50-goal campaign, and his career high of 55 from 2021-22 is within range.

Draisaitl (undisclosed) is expected to draw into the lineup Saturday versus Calgary, per Tony Brar of Oilers TV.
Draisaitl missed four straight games due to the injury. He's expected to play alongside Vasily Podkolzin and Viktor Arvidsson in his return. Mattias Janmark, who has averaged 15:36 of ice time over Edmonton's past four games, is likely to see his role reduced due to Draisaitl's availability.

Oilers' Leon Draisaitl: Probable for Saturday
Draisaitl (undisclosed) will be a game-time decision but appears to be probable versus Calgary on Saturday, according to Tony Brar of Oilers TV.
Draisaitl appears to be ahead of schedule following a four-game absence. He was on the top line during Saturday's morning skate. Draisaitl has dropped to third place in NHL scoring, trailing Nathan MacKinnon and Nikita Kucherov, but still leads the league with 49 goals and has 101 points through 68 appearances this season.

Oilers' Leon Draisaitl: Unlikely to return this week
Draisaitl (undisclosed) is unlikely to play in any of the Oilers' three games this week, Jason Gregor of Sports 1440 Edmonton reports Monday.
Draisaitl has missed the last two games, and head coach Kris Knoblauch indicated Friday that both Draisaitl and Connor McDavid (lower body) could miss at least a week. Monday's report is roughly in line with those remarks and would mean that the soonest that Draisaitl would be in the mix to return would be against the Golden Knights on April 1. Draisaitl will presumably continue to be monitored closely throughout the week, but Derek Ryan could continue to see playing time for the Oilers in the coming games.

Draisaitl (undisclosed) will miss Saturday's clash with Seattle, Bob Stauffer of the Oilers Radio Network reports.
In addition to Draisaitl, the Oilers will also be without superstar Connor McDavid (lower body), who is undergoing an MRI on Friday. With its top two centers sidelined, Edmonton will likely move Ryan Nugent-Hopkins and Adam Henrique into top-six roles. For his part, Draisaitl will miss his second straight game due to his undisclosed injury.

Oilers' Leon Draisaitl: Doubtful against Jets
Draisaitl is considered day-to-day with an undisclosed injury and is expected to miss Thursday's clash with Winnipeg, Bob Stauffer of the Oilers Radio Network reports.
Draisaitl is poised to miss his first game of the season due to his undisclosed injury. According to head coach Kris Knoblauch, the team is taking a cautious approach with the star center and will evaluate him on a game-to-game basis. If Draisiatl is out, Ryan Nugent-Hopkins figures to shift into the second-line center role.

Oilers' Leon Draisaitl: Keeps streak alive with helper
Draisaitl notched a power-play assist and two shots on goal in Sunday's 3-1 win over the Rangers.
Draisaitl helped out on a Corey Perry goal in the first period. With his point streak reaching 18 games, Draisaitl's on the longest run by any player in the league this season. He has 14 goals and 13 assists in that span, and 11 of his points during the streak have come on the power play. He's had two stretches of at least 14 straight games on the scoresheet this season. Overall, the 29-year-old has 49 goals, 52 helpers, 31 power-play points, 223 shots on net and a plus-28 rating over 67 appearances in what's shaping up to be one of the best years of his career.
