"That blade on your stick, is there a nickname for it? It seems extremely oversized and in fact illegal,» Paul Bissonnette questioned.
Draisaitl stated that it's for sure legal and also revealed his great nickname for the paddle.
"It is legal, Draisaitl said. "But I do call it the ‘burger flipper' every once in a while. I think it flips a nice burger."
During Draisaitl's interview, he also answered a question from Rick Tocchet about how much he's practiced to get his amazing backhand.
"It's just something I've taken big pride in,» Draisaitl said. «My dad used to always tell me it's another weapon in any situation, really. I try to use it to my advantage and sometimes it works better than others."
