Oilers gut out massive 4-2 win over Golden Knights to kick off road trip: Recap, Reaction and Highlights |
The Edmonton Oilers have picked up their second win in their last three games.
On Sunday evening, they flew to Sin City to kick-start a four-game road trip. Taking on the Vegas Golden Knights in the first game, a rematch of their second-round matchup, the Oilers defeated them 4-2 in a crucial victory. Let’s take a look at what went on in this one.
Just over three minutes into the middle frame, the Oilers got on the board. Evan Bouchard’s net-front pass was deflected on net, with Adin Hill falling to make the save. Bouchard got the puck and went around the net, passing it out front to Trent Frederic. While his initial shot was stopped, he was able to elevate it over Hill for his fourth goal of the season.

With seven minutes left in the second, the Golden Knights tied it. Noah Hanifin walked the blue line and shot from the point. Unfortunately, it deflected off Darnell Nurse and past Connor Ingram to send the two Pacific Division rivals tied at one heading into the second intermission.
