Edmonton Oilers may be without one of their best players for Game 7
The Edmonton Oilers were able to force a Game 7, but if today's morning skate was any indication it appears Game 7, may have just gotten much tough.
No water bottle on the bench for Draisaitl. Doesn't look to be taking morning skate.
While this doesn't immediately rule Draisaitl out for tonight's game, it is definitely not a positive sign. In Game 6, Draisaitl fell during a scrum and his ankle became tangled underneath him.
If Draisaitl is unable to go tonight it will make the matchup game much easier for the Kings and Philip Danault to try and get the lines they want.
