With the game well out of reach in the third period, Draisaitl was seen dropping a savage chirp to the Kings players - asking them if they were gonna cry after the defeat.
The Los Angeles Kings started clearly throwing hits with intent to injure the Oilers once their hopes of a comeback were pretty much gone, but the Oilers fought back with some physical play of their own. Between a fight from Evander Kane, scraps from Vinny Desharnais, chirps from Leon Draisaitl and goals from everyone, the Oilers beat up the Kings in every way possible last night.
It wasn't Leon's only hilarious play from last night as well. In one bizarre sequence, Draisaitl was skating down the ice and had to totally deke out a referee to keep moving.
Playoff Leon Draisaitl has fully arrived for the Edmonton Oilers, and he's talking the talk and walking the walk. With Draisaitl firing on full cylinders like this, the Oilers two headed monster of generational talents may be impossible to stop in the playoffs.
