Zach Hyman scored two goals and had an assist and Leon Draisaitl had a goal and two assists as the Edmonton Oilers rolled over the visiting Vancouver Canucks 6-2 on Thursday.
Things were testy to start, with the Oilers looking to avenge the loss of their Captain following Conor Garland’s malicious attack on Connor McDavid’s stick with the side of his face.
The Edmonton Oilers and Vancouver Canucks rematch on Thursday was tense after Saturday’s controversial ending and McDavid’s subsequent suspension.
BOTTOM LINE: The Edmonton Oilers will attempt to continue a four-game win streak with a victory against the Vancouver Canucks. Vancouver is 19-15-10 overall with a 6-4-2 record in Pacific Division play. The Canucks have a -15 scoring differential, with 125 total goals scored and 140 conceded.
Hyman put Edmonton ahead 1-0 at 5:52 of the first period, taking a long lead pass from Draisaitl up the left boards at the blue line, cutting across at the dot while keeping Hronek on his back and scoring glove side on Demko.
