Final Score: 5-4 OilersWith disappointing losses in Detroit and Buffalo bookending a solid game in Boston, I was very curious to see how the Oilers would respond tonight in St. Louis. The bad news is that none of that happened, and St. Louis was able to erase the deficit by simply outworking the Oilers and taking advantage of their sloppy defending. This game turned from having us all excited about a win to praying for at least a point so fast it made my head spin. The goal marked McDavid’s 600th point in only his 421st game, which is the sixth-fastest in NHL history that anyone has reached that plateau. The Oilers’ power play is such a gift, isn’t it?
