EDMONTON, AB - 41 and counting.
Oilers forward and red-hot sniper Leon Draisaitl doesn't even consider himself to be an elite goal scorer, but he's proving himself wrong.
"I never used to be, let's put it that way," the German said from the Oilers dressing room on Wednesday. "I try to bare down on my chances. That's the one thing I take a lot of pride in - if I get an opportunity I make it count. They're going in right now, and knock on wood hopefully they keep going in."

"I try to find different angles and put it on myself hard during the summer to put the puck on net. It's something that's helped me be a bit more dangerous," Leon Draisaitl said.
