This matchup represents a classic Western Conference battle between an offensive powerhouse from Dallas and a team desperate to find consistency on the road. The Oilers’ dominance at home cannot be overlooked, but Robertson’s individual brilliance poses a significant challenge.
McDavid and Draisaitl’s Elite Scoring Partnership
Connor McDavid continues to pace the Edmonton Oilers with 33 points (10 goals, 23 assists) in just 24 games, good for third in the NHL. Alongside Draisaitl’s 28 points, the dynamic duo represents one of hockey’s most formidable one-two punches.
This partnership marks a significant milestone for the franchise. The last season McDavid and Draisaitl both failed to crack the top 10 in league scoring was 2017-18, when McDavid led the entire NHL with 108 points while Draisaitl finished tied for 34th with 70 points.

The challenge for Robertson intensifies when facing an Edmonton team playing with desperation on home ice. Despite their record, the Oilers’ home advantage at Rogers Place presents a formidable obstacle. Draisaitl’s defensive capabilities and McDavid’s playmaking prowess will test Robertson’s ability to find scoring opportunities.
