Still, that lack of goal-scoring can stem from a few injuries on their forward lines. Following their third game of the year, the Oilers have been without Drake Caggiula and Leon Draisaitl, both of who have a huge impact on the forecheck.
Thankfully for Edmonton, doctors have cleared Caggiula and Draisaitl to play, so the team activated both of them off the injured reserve, and both of them will return Tuesday against Pittsburgh. The Oilers have also reassigned Brad Malone to the Condors in wake of both of them drawing back into the lineup.
Firepower on Offence
Obviously, Draisaitl is one of the team’s most important forwards.
