Connor Brown found the net twice, while Connor McDavid added a goal and provided two assists. Leon Draisaitl, Brett Kulak, Corey Perry, and Victor Arvidsson each scored as well, steering the Edmonton Oilers to a convincing 7-3 win against the Vancouver Canucks.
Mattias Janmark helped set up three goals, and Stuart Skinner made 17 saves for the Oilers. On the Canucks' side, Elias Pettersson notched one goal and assisted another, with Filip Hronek and Pius Suter scoring as well. Vancouver's loss came after they had triumphed in their last three games.
Kevin Lankinen conceded seven goals before being replaced by Arturs Silovs, who successfully stopped all four shots he encountered. Brock Boeser missed the match for Vancouver due to an injury to his upper body.
The Canucks have allowed the first goal in each of their last seven matches, yet they have managed to mount comebacks in five of those games. Edmonton's power play unit converted on their third try during the match, elevating their league percentage from the 26th position to 14.3%.
A pivotal moment arrived in the third period when Vincent Desharnais failed to clear the puck, leading to Brown’s goal that expanded Edmonton's advantage to 4-2 at 6:10.
McDavid now boasts a record of 67 points in 41 career meetings against the Canucks, which is the highest points total he has achieved against any team.
Next, the Oilers are set to host the New York Islanders on Tuesday, while the Canucks will take on Calgary at home.
