In a thrilling showdown at Rogers Place on February 24th, Zach Hyman proved once again why he&#8217;s become one of the best free agent signings of all time. The Edmonton Oilers winger delivered a standout performance <a href="https://publish.oilersnation.com/2024/02/24/game-55-preview-edmonton-oilers-vs-calgary-flames-8pm-mt-hnic/">against the Calgary Flames</a>, setting a new career-high in goals scored with a sensational display on the ice.
Hyman&#8217;s remarkable evening saw him netting two crucial goals against the Flames, pushing his tally for the season to an impressive 37 goals in just 54 games. The first of his goals came on the power play at 18:59 of the first period, showcasing his knack for capitalizing on critical opportunities when he chipped a loose puck over a fallen Vladar. With a deft touch, he found the back of the net, igniting the crowd at Rogers Place and setting the table for a possible comeback after the Oilers fell 3-0 early.
But Hyman wasn&#8217;t finished yet. Early in the second period, at 4:34 to be precise, he struck again, this time assisted by the dynamic duo of Leon Draisaitl and Connor McDavid. This time it was a breakaway goal on a nice deke, which was a testament to Hyman&#8217;s versatility and ability to mesh seamlessly with his linemates, as he capitalized on the playmaking prowess of his teammates to find the twine once more.
Hyman&#8217;s ascent to a new career-high in goals scored underscores his importance to the Oilers&#8217; offensive arsenal. His blend of skill, tenacity, and hockey IQ has made him a linchpin in Edmonton&#8217;s quest for success this season. Whether it&#8217;s crashing the net, winning battles along the boards, or unleashing a lethal shot, Hyman has consistently found ways to make an impact on the game.
With his stellar performance against the Flames, Hyman has not only etched his name into the record books but has also provided a timely boost for the Oilers as they gear up for the stretch run of the season. As the playoffs loom on the horizon, his ability to deliver in clutch moments will undoubtedly be a key factor in Edmonton&#8217;s postseason aspirations.
For Zach Hyman, the journey to this career milestone has been a testament to his dedication, perseverance, and unwavering commitment to excellence. With each goal scored, he continues to solidify his place as one of the premier forwards in the NHL, and his latest feat serves as a reminder of the remarkable talent that graces the ice night in and night out.
As the Oilers faithful revel in Hyman&#8217;s record-setting performance, one thing is abundantly clear: Zach Hyman&#8217;s star continues to rise in Edmonton, and what one Toronto blogger once called &#8220;the worst contract in NHL history&#8221; is starting to look like a steal.
