Oilers Are Surging Towards A New NHL RecordEDMONTON – This playoff run is turning into a Cinderella story.
Experience helps us grow, and it's no different for NHL hockey players.
The Oilers have learned a lot since last year's playoff run. And in this year's postseason, more Oilers are pushing the team along offensively.
Their playoff goal differential without their dynamic duo is quite an impressive statistic. When McDavid and Draisaitl aren't on the ice, the Oilers have outscored their opponents 14-8.

Every single Oilers forward (except Jeff Skinner) has scored at least one goal in the playoffs. Ty Emberson, John Klingberg, Brett Kulak, and Josh Brown join that list of Oilers who haven't recorded a goal.
Throughout their entire 2024 postseason, the Oilers only scored 12 goals when McDavid and Draisaitl weren't on the ice. Derek Ryan, Vincent Desharnais, and Sam Carrick were the only players to not score.
Let's see what the rest of the year has in store for this Stanley Cup hopeful team.
