Leon Draisaitl's Overtime Goal Lifts Oilers Over Islanders 2-1

Draisaitl's two goals, including an OT winner, propel Edmonton as New York's scoring woes persist.

  • Leon Draisaitl scored twice, including the game-winning goal in overtime, to secure the Edmonton Oilers' 2-1 victory over the New York Islanders.
  • Draisaitl now leads the NHL with 49 goals this season and has reached the 100-point milestone for the sixth time in seven seasons.
  • Oilers goalie Calvin Pickard made 24 saves, including a key stop in overtime that set up Draisaitl's breakaway winner.
  • The Islanders, struggling offensively after trading star center Brock Nelson, have scored just three goals in their last three games and remain four points out of a playoff spot.
  • Ilya Sorokin's 33-save performance kept the Islanders in the game, but New York's lack of scoring depth continues to hinder their postseason push.
