<p>Boy oh boy, what a game.</p>
<p></p>
<p>It was a tough first frame despite Zach Hyman giving the Oilers a 1-0 lead that was quickly lost. Pittsburgh scored two quick ones by the end of one. They got another early in the third, but then it was all Oilers.</p>
<p>That, of course, came after a few tense moments where Connor McDavid crashed into the Oilers&#8217; post. The Oilers captain got tied up with Penguins defenceman Jeff Petry and went back first into the post. He was down for a moment or two and went to the bench with Oilers trainer T.D. Forss. After heading down the tunnel for a brief checkup, McDavid was back..</p>
<p>Nearly instantly, the floodgates opened. Tyson Barrie scored and Evander Kane, Ryan Nugent-Hopkins, Leon Draisaitl and Ryan McLeod all tickled the twine.</p>
