Connor McDavid's longtime girlfriend, Lauren Kyle, is celebrating the Edmonton Oilers' series-clenching victory Thursday in the Battle of Alberta.
With the Oilers now advancing to the next round, perhaps McDavid and Kyle will kick off the weekend with a mini celebration inside their “designated team party house.” The Oilers will play the winner of the second-round series between the St. Louis Blues and the Colorado Avalanche. The Avalanche, who currently hold a 3-2 series lead, will visit St. Louis for Game 6 on Friday night. McDavid, who has been dating Kyle for several years, scored the overtime goal to send the Oilers to the Western Conference Finals, bringing his postseason goal total to seven with 19 assists and 26 points.

L’ancienne marque pour une confrontation de cinq rencontres appartenait à Gretzky (13) depuis 1987. En participant activement à l’élimination des Flames, jeudi soir, Connor McDavid et Leon Draisaitl ont amené les Oilers à mi-chemin du parcours menant à la coupe Stanley, une étape que les représentants de la capitale albertaine n’avaient pas atteinte depuis 2006.
