The Oilers are not inclined to let Leon Draisaitl play out the final year of his contract, according to sources. Draisaitl is eligible to sign an extension with the Oilers July 1. The article does not provide information about whether Draisaitl has requested a trade or any other team's interest in him.
@TransactionWire, Draisaitl's underlying numbers have been strong all year, but his shooting percentage has been inflated by playing with elite linemates - that said, I do think the Oilers would want to retain him given his value to the team's top six and PP production.
