Connor McDavid and Leon Draisaitl have led the Edmonton Oilers to the second round of the Stanley Cup playoffs and will face the Vancouver Canucks next. But there's ample time to relax amid the playoff pressure, as their next game will be on Wednesday, May 8 at 10:00 PM EDT.
McDavid and Draisaitl are well-known for their friendship both on and off the ice. They were recently seen watching a movie together.
Lauren Kyle, Connor McDavid's fiancee, recently posted images on her Instagram account indicating that the couple were enjoying a movie in a home theater with their companions. The film 'The Fall Guy', directed by David Leitch and starring Ryan Gosling, was playing on the big screen.
Leon Draisaitl and his partner, Celeste Desjardins, were also captured in the second image shared by Lauren Kyle. Here in the image, we can see Desjardins, who is a Canadian actress by profession, with a glass of beer and in the background, we see a little glimpse of Draisaitl focused on the movie at hand, exactly like the puck during games.
