Oilers' Leon Draisaitl: Scores overtime winner in for Team Europe

Draisaitl scored the overtime winner for Team Europe in Monday's 3-2 victory over the Czech Republic at the World Cup of Hockey.

Analysis:

Draisaitl only played 13 minutes, but was productive in his limited playing time with two shots and a plus-2 rating to go with his goal -- a breakaway beauty off a feed from Rangers winger Mats Zuccarello. The 20-year-old German center will have to beat out Ryan Nugent-Hopkins for a top-six role in Edmonton once the NHL season rolls around.
