Oilers Secure Third Straight Win but Face Injury Challenges to Draisaitl and McDavid

Leon Draisaitl and Connor McDavid are both sidelined, but Edmonton remains competitive in the Pacific Division playoff race.

Leon Draisaitl sustained a lower-body injury during the Oilers' 3-2 win over the Sharks on April 3 and is expected to return before the playoffs.
Connor McDavid, out since March 20 with a lower-body injury, is also projected to return before the postseason begins on April 19.
Despite missing their two star players, the Oilers have won three consecutive games and remain two points behind the Los Angeles Kings for second place in the Pacific Division.
Jeff Skinner scored the game-winning goal against the Sharks, while Calvin Pickard made a critical save in the final minute to secure the victory.
The San Jose Sharks extended their losing streak to four games and remain at the bottom of the NHL standings, struggling with injuries and lack of depth.
