Draisaitl Powers Germany's 5-1 Rout of France
Leon Draisaitl delivers for Germany in the Olympics, notching a goal as they cruise past France and punch their ticket to the next round. Fans back home know this is vintage 29, the guy who torments NHL defenses now turning it on for the Fatherland with Pop Samanski chipping in too. With the Olympic break winding down, every shift from stars like him carries weight for their clubs waiting stateside, as front offices eye how these games shake out rosters before the deadline frenzy hits.
