Edmonton — Despite a strong effort, the Calgary Flames suffered another agonizing overtime loss on Saturday night.
However, the outcome was almost predetermined when Leon Draisaitl received medical clearance to play after a four-game absence just 12 hours prior to the game.
From that moment on, the game unfolded in a familiar pattern whenever Draisaitl faces the Calgary Flames.
He dominated.
This time, his performance was historic, as he scored his sixth overtime game-winning goal of the season, setting a new NHL record.
After Draisaitl`s 50th goal tied the score late in the third period, it felt inevitable to everyone at Rogers Place that he would secure the win, adding his 11th game-winning goal of the season to his tally, which is exactly what happened.
