Teuvo Teravainen had an impressive performance with four points from two goals and two assists, while Connor Bedard added to the tally with three points from one goal and two assists. Their efforts helped the Chicago Blackhawks secure a 5-2 victory over the Edmonton Oilers in the Saturday night game.
In his 800th NHL game, Seth Jones made a significant impact by scoring one goal and providing two assists. Philipp Kurashev contributed the other goal for the Blackhawks, and Petr Mrazek was solid in net with 35 saves.
The Oilers saw goals from Corey Perry and Leon Draisaitl, but their efforts were not enough as they remain winless with a record of 0-2, following their run to the Stanley Cup Final last season. Calvin Pickard managed 15 saves for Edmonton.
Taylor Hall, a former Oiler, provided an assist for Chicago, bringing his career points against his former team to eight over 12 games. The game showcased four former top draft picks: Hall and Bedard for the Blackhawks, and Connor McDavid and Ryan Nugent-Hopkins for the Oilers.
Brett Kulak marked his 500th NHL game and played a crucial role in the Oilers' defensive lineup.
Bedard's goal with six minutes left in the second period helped extend the Blackhawks' lead to two goals. Draisaitl, noted for his impressive record against the Blackhawks, continued his point streak to 16 games against Chicago, compiling 13 goals and 18 assists during that stretch.
Looking ahead, Edmonton will face the Calgary Flames on Sunday, while the Blackhawks will end their road trip with a game in Calgary on Tuesday.
