The Oilers and Wild game got heated last night with multiple controversial incidents, and while some insider suggested extra discipline for Ryan Hartman's slewfoot on Leon Draisaitl, no penalty will come.

The Minnesota Wild announce Marcus Johansson has an upper ... Another game, another dangerous slew foot, this time on Leon Draisaitl from Ryan Hartman, never known to hold off the nasty.

The Wild held two separate leads before falling to Connor McDavid and the Oilers, losing Marcus Johansson along the way.

Draisaitl scored a goal on four shots and added an assist in Tuesday's 3-2 loss to the Capitals.

Draisaitl is expected to be a core piece for the Oilers for the foreseeable future. He signed an eight-year, $112 million contract ($14 million average annual value) starting next season and is currently in the final season of an eight-year, $68 million contract ($8.5 million AAV) signed prior to the 2017-2018 season.

Connor McDavid isn’t expected to face any supplemental discipline from the NHL’s Department of Player Safety after elbowing Minnesota Wild winger Marcus Johansson, Daily Faceoff’s Frank Seravalli reported Thursday.

Edmonton Oilers superstar Leon Draisaitl scored his 29th goal in the first five minute of a game in a 3-2 loss to the Washington Capitals.

With Eriksson Ek set to line up against McDavid and/or Draisaitl all night, and the Oilers allowing just 2.48 goals per game with a league-best 88.1 penalty-kill percentage through their past 29 games, this is a nightmare matchup for the Minny center.

Two teams that are among the league leaders in wins and points will clash at the Xcel Energy Center on Wednesday night.

Connor McDavid will lead the Edmonton Oilers against the Colorado Avalanche at Ball Arena, Denver in back-to-back games after playing the Minnesota Wild on Wednesday.

Draisaitl's elite production has led the Oilers to a top-five position in the NHL standings and he is firmly in the mix to take home his second Hart Trophy. Per FanDuel Sportsbook, Draisaitl has the third-best odds to win the award at +320. Only Nathan MacKinnon at +280 and his Oilers teammate Connor McDavid at +300 have shorter odds.
