The Oilers have now won four consecutive games, as they took down the Seattle Kraken by a score of 5-2 on Tuesday night in Edmonton. Below are the highlights from the game…
GAME HIGHLIGHTS ARE PRESENTED BY BETWAY
Things started off well for the Kraken as they capitalized on a power play just a few minutes into the game to get out to an early 1-0 lead. Daniel Sprong fired a pass toward Edmonton’s net and it deflected off of Darnell Nurse and past Jack Campbell…
Later in the first frame, Connor McDavid knotted things up at 1-1 with his 38th goal of the season…
connor mcdavid is out here breaking ankles tonight. good lord.
Early in the second period, Martin Jones gave the Oilers a gift. Vincent Desharnais threw a shot on goal from the point and it squeezed through Jones and sat in the crease for a moment before Derek Ryan put it into the net…

The Oilers extended their lead to 3-1 in the latter part of the second period. Leon Draisaitl fed Zach Hyman in the high slot and Jones stopped the original shot but Warren Foegele was able to bury the rebound after a mad scramble in front of the net…

Seconds into the third period, Jack Campbell’s glove failed him and the Kraken brought the score to 3-2…
quite the start to the third period. first, jack campbell's glove fails him on a vince dunn shot, then eeli tolvanen scores an own goal. alrighty then!
Shortly after, the Kraken gave that goal right back. Oliver Bjorkstrand made a poor outlet pass and the Oilers turned around and brought the puck right back into Seattle’s zone. Leon Draisaitl fed Zach Hyman in the slot and Seattle forward Eeli Tolvanen poked the puck past Jones for an own-goal…
They all look the same on the scoreboard 😏
The Oilers added some insurance later in the third period. Zach Hyman worked the puck into the zone, tried to feed Dylan Holloway out front, and the puck bounced off of Holloway’s skate and right to Ryan McLeod, who parked himself right next to the post for an easy tap-in…
