NHL: Leon Draisaitl hits no effect – Arizona Coyotes lose in penalty shootout

The German legionaries in the North American professional ice hockey league NHL had little reason to be happy at the end of their first week in the new year. Leon Draisaitl lost 5-1 to the Edmonton Oilers at Dallas Stars despite his eleventh goal of the season, and his national team-mate Tobias Rieder was beaten 1-2 by the Arizona Coyotes against the New York Rangers after a penalty shoot-out.

Once again Korbinian Holzer was the spectator at the 2:3 of his Anaheim Ducks at the Calgary Flames.

Draisaitt’s goal to the interim 1:4 success meant for the Oilers only result cosmetics. After all, the native of Cologne, who was born in Cologne, strengthened his position with his 33rd birthday. Scorer point in the current season in the internal ranking of Canadians took second place behind leader Connor McDavid. Former Canadian icon Wayne Gretzky are now eight points behind Colorado Avalanche in the West following their fifth defeat in the last six matches.

Two places behind Rieder and the Coyotes are still last in the standings and at the bottom of the league. Rieder remained ineffective in Dallas at Arizona’s third defeat in the past four games.

Holzer was once again missing from the Ducks squad. Since the end of November, the Munich native has only been used once for Anaheim.
