ANAHEIM — Initially, Leon Draisaitl returned from an injury, but unfortunately, was injured again shortly after his comeback.
Subsequently, Trent Frederic`s debut with the Oilers in Los Angeles lasted only seven minutes before he also had to leave due to injury. He will be absent from tonight`s game in Anaheim, leaving the Edmonton Oilers with a reduced roster of 19 players for the game against the Ducks.
With only six regular season games remaining before the playoffs, these games are fortunately less critical for Edmonton, who are currently struggling with injuries. The Oilers are experiencing a wave of injuries, particularly affecting their key players.
The question is whether Edmonton will be adequately prepared to defend their Western Conference title given these circumstances.
General manager Stan Bowman commented, “With only six games remaining, they won`t have many games to play before playoffs,” adding, “However, we are optimistic that everyone will recover and be ready before the playoffs commence.”
