Leon Draisaitl talks about Connor McDavid’s 1,000 career points milestone (Source: Imagn)
Leon Draisaitl is being careful about talking too much about Connor McDavid reaching 1,000 career points. As McDavid gets closer to the milestone, Draisaitl hopes it happens at home before the Oilers play the Toronto Maple Leafs.
(2:12) "I hope I'm not going to jinx it," Draisaitl said. "I have a feeling it’s not going to get to Toronto. Knock on wood, hopefully, I'm right."
McDavid is currently at 999 points, with the next game against the New York Islanders. He’s had a good start to the season with 17 points in 13 games.
Although he was looking a little slower than usual, he has picked up pace in last two games. He scored three points (one goal, two assists) in the game against Vancouver and four points (one goal three assists) in the game against the Islanders.
