The Edmonton Oilers have played 3 series and each of them have been a physical battle, causing multiple players to be injured.

Kailer Yamamoto, Jesse Puljarvi and even star forward Leon Draisaitl suffered a wicked ankle injury on his right foot, and it has yet to wear off. His struggles are clearly showing on ice as each play he can hardly stand on two feet, but still has 4 assists as this game is heading into overtime.

It has even dated back to two months ago against the Anaheim Ducks when the limping started, and it's uneasy watching the star limp around- leaving in question.. when is it enough for Draisaitl to stop playing as he clearly seemed in pain each shift. Well, it was never enough for Draisaitl, he played for two months straight as well as 3 rough playoff series on one leg practically, with a sprained ankle.

A sprain ankle can cause severe pain as well as recovery time taking up to 6-12 weeks, Draisaitl is sure thankful the off season is now upon the Oilers roster.
