Edmonton Oilers F Leon Draisaitl took part in the NHL skills competition shooting accuracy shooting competition Friday night where he came in second place.
Draisaitl had a great showing, however, hitting all five targets on seven shots in an impressive 10.257.
The sniper who was able to score 50 last year for the Edmonton Oilers was bested by Carolina Hurricanes D Jaccob Slavin, who surprised everyone completing the competition in 9.505 seconds.
The competition this year saw shooting firing at a LED screen placed on the goalline which was the first time they did something like this. Each player shot from 25 feet away.
