Germany’s ice hockey star Leon Draisaitl has expanded his leadership in the NHL goal scorer list and celebrated the next victory with his Edmonton Oilers after extra time. Born in Cologne, the Chicago Blackhawks scored his 38th Sizeontor in 4: 3, and he delivered his 43rd assist. So Draisaitl, 29, is now also in the front list of the league.
Draisaitl leads the ranking of the best goal scorers in the league with five goals ahead of William Nylander from the Toronto Raptors. In Chicago he scored the 3-1 lead. Zach Hyman in the Power Play made a victory in the extension at the presentation of Connor McDavid and Evan Bouchard.
Chicago’s German international Lukas Reichel also posted a sense of achievement in this game. The 22-year-old scored for the meantime 1: 1. For Reichel it was the fifth goal of the season. Draisaitl is with the Oilers, who had already won a thriller in overtime at the St. Louis Blues two days earlier, as the second of the Western Conference on play-off course, Reichel is the penultimate with the Blackhawks.
