Draisaitl buried his 50th goal of the season on three shots in Saturday's 3-1 win over the Flames. Draisaitl's landmark tally was the opening goal in the game. He and Alex Ovechkin are the only two players to hit 50 scores this year. Draisaitl ends the year with 105 points after playing in all 82 games, doubling his goal output from 25 last season.

Draisaitl scored two goals, one while shorthanded, on seven shots in Thursday's 3-2 loss to the Sharks. Draisaitl's pair of tallies give him 49 goals and 104 points in 81 games this season. He's scored three times shorthanded this year. Sitting just a goal back of the 50-score mark, it's reasonable to assume Draisaitl will get a chance to hit the milestone Saturday versus the Flames.

Draisaitl picked up a goal and an assist in Thursday's 3-2 shootout loss to the Stars. Draisaitl is breathing down Alex Ovechkin's neck for the Rocket Richard Trophy, as he sits two goals back of Ovechkin's 49 with five team games to play for the Oilers. His assist set up Connor McDavid for his 40th goal of the season. The pair have been great for Edmonton but got no help as usual.
