An update for the upcoming week has been provided regarding Leon Draisaitl and Connor McDavid's injuries, and they will unfortunately miss games. The Edmonton Oilers will be missing Connor McDavid and Leon Draisaitl from the lineup this Saturday, as head coach Kris Knoblauch confirmed that <a href='https://www.si.com/onsi/breakaway/news-feed-page/edmonton-oilers-connor-mcdavid-leon-draisaitl-out-against-seattle-kraken' class='lien_marqueur' target='_blank' rel='noopener'>neither would play in the Seattle Kraken game</a>, at the very bare minimum.

Knoblauch praised the collective effort while McDavid was out. We're very confident with the team that we have, Knoblauch said. Players that can step up and play bigger responsibilities than they have previously this season. I thought there was a great effort by so many of our guys. There's no quit, and we're gonna need more of that. <a href='https://www.nhl.com/oilers/player/connor-mcdavid-8478402' class='lien_marqueur' target='_blank' rel='noopener'>McDavid</a> has 26 goals and 90 points in 63 games this season, having turned 28 years old. <h3>Draisaitl was already held out of the game against Winnipeg</h3> Meanwhile, Draisaitl was rested by Edmonton for its 7-1 victory over Utah on Tuesday <a href='https://www.hockeylatest.com/nhl-team/edmonton-oilers/elliotte-friedman-shares-concerning-new-update-on-leon-draisaitl-for-the-rest-of-the-season' class='lien_marqueur' target='_blank' rel='noopener'>with an undisclosed injury and was unavailable against Winnipeg.</a> He paces the league with 49 goals and the Oilers with a team-leading 101 points. With a crucial stretch ahead, the Oilers and their fans are praying that this is the only week that both players will be out, but unfortunately, a longer timeline has yet to be confirmed.
