Leon Draisaitl is Battling an Illness and Injury Update on Evander Kane Released
Leon Draisaitl has been dealing with an illness but despite that he is supposed to suit up for tonight's game against the Detroit Red Wings at 9:30 pm eastern time. Kane is also a bit banged up but is expected to play tonight as well.
There have been no updates on Klim Kostin so we are assuming he won't be in the lineup after suffering a wrist injury last Saturday against the Ottawa Senators. Kostin has appeared in 37 games this season for the Oilers and has 13 points so far.
The last time these two teams met was on February 7th where the Oilers would go on to beat the Red Wings 5-2.
