SAN JOSE -- Leon Draisaitl had an assist before leaving in the second period of the Edmonton Oilers' 3-2 win against the San Jose Sharks at SAP Center on Thursday. Draisaitl was playing in his third game since returning from an undisclosed injury that caused him to miss four games.

Jeff Skinner scored the tiebreaking goal shortly after Draisaitl left the game, giving the Oilers a 3-2 victory that kept them within two points of Los Angeles in the race for second place in the Pacific Division and home-ice advantage in the first round of the playoffs.
