Leon Draisaitl currently leads the NHL goal-scoring race as he has found the back of the net 31 times this season.

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

With a back-to-back Wednesday and Thursday, the Oilers may turn to Calvin Pickard to keep their winning streak alive.

Pickard stopped 31 of 34 shots in Wednesday's 5-3 win over the Wild.
