This is becoming Leon Draisaitl’s Stanley Cup Final for the Edmonton Oilers.

The standout German forward has scored the overtime goal in each of their two wins in the championship series rematch against the Florida Panthers, including Thursday night in Game 4 in a 5-4 Oilers win to pull Edmonton even. He’s just the fifth player in NHL history and first in more than three decades to score twice in overtime in the final.

“He’s as clutch as it gets,” goaltender Calvin Pickard said while sitting next to Draisaitl, who also had a pair of assists for a three-point performance. “Always scores big goals at big times.”

Draisaitl’s four OT goals this playoffs are the most in a single postseason. John LeClair was the last to score two OT goals in a final for Montreal back in 1993, the last time a Canadian team won the Cup.

Edmonton is two victories away from ending that drought thanks in large part to Draisaitl delivering when it matters most.

“It’s incredible,” longtime teammate Ryan Nugent-Hopkins said. “We always can lean on him, and he always finds a way to get those big ones.”

It’s also nothing new. Among modern day players with at least 40 games of playoff experience, only Hall of Famers Wayne Gretzky and Mario Lemieux and teammate Connor McDavid have produced at a higher rate at the toughest time of the year to score.

Draisaitl is averaging 1.49 points a game, and this series has been a showcase for him after being far less than 100% a year ago when he and the Oilers lost in the final. All the overtimes aren’t bothering him.

“I feel great,” Draisaitl said. “Fatigue kicks in at some point, but your adrenaline usually takes over and you just chip away at it.”

Draisaitl was displeased after Edmonton fell behind 3-0 in the first period of Game 4. But the Oilers rallied to tie it, took the lead and then gave up the tying goal with 19.5 seconds left in regulation. That set the stage for Draisaitl.

Draisaitl accurately called his goal “a fortunate bounce — no secret about it.” But there were enough plays throughout the night that he did not finish, so call it even.

With the Panthers putting all their energy into stopping McDavid, Draisaitl is taking over just about any time he’s on the ice.

“He has just elevated his game in the toughest moments,” Oilers coach Kris Knoblauch said.

Sharks prospect honored

Sharks prospect Sam Dickinson was named the Canadian Hockey League’s Defenseman of the Year on Friday. Dickinson helped the London Knights win the Memorial Cup and with 91 points in 55 regular-season games, recorded the 10th-highest total by a CHL defenseman since 2000.
