“I missed all of the third period because having kids is one of the best things to ever happen to me. Thank you Connor McDavid for being very good for being good at hockey too. The Oilers needed a game like this where they go into an opponents barn and have a dominant performance. Hopefully he can continue producing like he’s done in the NHL before. Wins like that make you forget about the bad losses earlier this week.” -Tyler Thank you for your service, & we’ll see you in March.” -Kylie - Stuart Skinner was back between the pipes and tasked with ending the three-game losing streak, but we knew he would need to be on top of his game as the Stars are a very good hockey team. My guy finished the night with a tidy little three-point night as he continues the year of Nuge. - Zach Hyman tied the game for a second time (2-2) after he battled for the loose puck in the crease and slid it past the goaltender. I don’t know what the Oilers we’re doing defensively but it was certainly not preventing the zone entry. Ad Advertisement

“And Connor’s goal gave us a little cushion.” It also marked the first time in four games that Edmonton scored two even-strength goals in a game. Now that was a bit of a different story. “We had a solid effort in Nashville, as well,” said head coach Jay Woodcroft. Up until the 52-minute mark, Leon Draisaitl and Connor McDavid didn’t have a point in the game. “You can’t not get a win for them.

The Stars announced before the game that forward Denis Gurianov has been granted an indefinite leave of absence from the team due to family reasons. He has a 14-game point streak, the longest active run in the league.

Ryan Nugent-Hopkins led the Edmonton Oilers to a gut check of a 6-3 win over the Dallas Stars on Wednesday.

He got a bit of luck on a Dallas power play scramble early in the second, making saves, then having Benn hit the post. He made a fine outside shot on the power play to set up Hyman’s goal in the second. He lost the battle on Mason Marchment’s power play tipped goal late in the second. For example, he charged up ice on a rush in the second, executed a fine drop pass, but the player he had dropped to, Ryan, had shifted off the ice. He had a solid sequence on the PK early in the third where he protected well against a cross-seam pass. He left his man Benn in the slot on the power play and Benn got off a dangerous shot. He knocked down a pass and had a pass deflected hard on the Dallas net late in the second. He won a board battle on the empty-netter. He won one more battle late in the game to get the puck over to Janmark for the empty-net goal. He took it hard to the net late in the first for a great shot. A few good passes and plays in the third, but he failed to build much on his goal-scoring game. He was in on only one Grade A chance the first two periods.

A timely goal for a team desperate to get back into the win column. As was the case with the first goal, it was a quick response. Something has to give eventually with this player, he has struggled in the first year of his mega deal. - Splitting McDrai was the right move. A scrum in front of Skinner popped the puck out to Benn who had a wide-open cage to shoot at...only to ring iron. With jus over eight minutes left in regulation, Warren Foegele snapped home a one-timer feed from Leon Draisaitl to give Edmonton the lead once again. Edmonton was able to draw the game’s first penalty and Zach Hyman deposited with a greasy in-front goal. 1-0 Dallas with about five minutes left in the first period.
