What a thrilling game for the Oilers! It's always a rollercoaster with them, isn't it? I mean, they had that 3-1 lead and then almost let it slip away again. It's a classic Oilers move to make things dramatic, but at least they pulled through in overtime.
Ilya Sorokin was phenomenal for the Islanders, keeping them in the game with some incredible saves. It really shows how crucial goaltending can be in tight matchups. And can we talk about Connor McDavid? A four-point night and he's just one point away from 1,000! That backhand goal was pure magic. It’s moments like these that remind us why he’s considered one of the best in the game.
The special teams battle was a nice surprise too. If the Oilers can keep that up, they’ll be a force to reckon with. Draisaitl hitting that milestone for power-play points is just another testament to the talent on this team. If they can tighten up their game management and close out leads, they could really make a deep run this season. What do you think? Are they finally finding their groove?
