The Oilers announced his status Tuesday, ruling him out for their remaining 14 games through April 16. Draisaitl left a game Sunday against Nashville after getting bumped hard by the Predators' Ozzy Wiesblatt during the first period and did not return. It was not immediately clear what the injury was or whether Draisaitl will miss any time once the playoffs begin on April 18. The 30-year-old from Germany ranks fourth in the league in scoring with 97 points in 65 games. Draisaitl won the Hart Trophy as MVP in 2020 and was the runner-up last season. ___ AP NHL: https://apnews.com/hub/nhl
