On March 4th, the Edmonton Oilers hosted the Ottawa Senators for an NHL regular season contest, ultimately securing a 5-4 victory in overtime.
The home team’s forward, Leon Draisaitl, was directly involved in all five of his squad’s goals; he scored twice himself and provided three assists.
This particular game marked the 301st NHL appearance for Draisaitl where he registered two or more points. This achievement propelled him into sole possession of third place in Oilers history for this specific statistic, moving past the legendary Mark Messier, who concluded his career with 300 such outings.
The record holder for the most games with a 2+ point performance for Edmonton is Wayne Gretzky (472 games), with Connor McDavid occupying the second spot (363).
