Connor McDavid factored on both the @EdmontonOilers’ goals to extend his assist streak to 12 games and help his club earn an NHL-leading 20th comeback win this season (tied w/ NJD). #NHLStats: https://t.co/4BFojS4cdq https://t.co/Uvb6ZBb8HF

What a win for Edmonton, as Draisaitl wires hime the winer from 97. Beat Boston on the road with a late goal and OT winner? That's always a good sign.
The @EdmontonOilers battle back for 2-1 OT win Boston to win their 5th straight game! Draisaitl 2-0-2, 32 goals on the season McDavid 2 assists, 12-game point streak (2-26-28) up to 99 points. Bouchard 2 assists, up to 60 points. Skinner 25 saves, another strong start!
The @EdmontonOilers rally from down 1-0 late in 3rd...force extra time...win their 5th consecutive game 2-1 (OT) in Boston. Draisaitl 1-1-2, GWG in OT. Hyman 43rd goal. McDavid 2 assists, 12-game point streak (2-26-28) up to 99 points on the season. Skinner, solid 25 saves.
THE MCDAVID-DRAISAITL CONNECTION ENDS IT IN OT. 😱 https://t.co/Z70fagGsOc
Oilers down 1-0 with 90 seconds to go in Boston. Win 2-1 in OT
McDavid very noticeably trying to make plays rather than score goals. Sets up Leon Draisaitl for the OT game winner and Bruins lose 2-1. Ouch
McDavid to Draisaitl for the winner in OT. This is a recording.
McDavid to Draisaitl is unfair. Game. Over #LetsGoOilers

In a greasy, grindy playoff-style game, Draisaitl ties it late with a greasy, grindy goal. This is certainly a playoff audition, and both Boston and Edmonton have passed the test. On to OT we go
Ryan Nugent-Hopkins with another incredible effort to save a goal moments before the Oilers tied it. Unreal. #Oilers

The Oilers tie it up with the goalie pulled late in the third period. Where have I seen this movie before? https://t.co/7n8CQDjUCT
Oilers tie it with 1:20 left.
This #Oilers #Bruins game has a total playoff feel to it. Playoffs are all about grinding it out. This is what the post-season is. Love to see it in March. No highlight reel plays tonight.
Only the 2nd time all year EDM has been involved in a scoreless tie thru 40:00–beat Detroit 3-2 (OT) Jan. 11. Oilers have gone 8-1 this year vs. teams on the 2nd of a back-to-back—we’ll see if fatigue is a factor for the Bruins (who got back after 3am last night) in the 3rd.
Round 2 of Oilers-Bruins two weeks after Boston blew a 4-1 lead w/25:00 left only to prevail 6-5 in OT. Visitors have won seven straight in this series; EDM has won its last three in TD Garden & six of its last seven. @LouDeBrusk & @GenePrincipe join for 5:38 MT puck drop. https://t.co/d4Yww0xhKN

There has always been a strange symmetry between the Pittsburgh Penguins and the Edmonton Oilers. But today, the contending Oilers tend to toy with the flagging Penguins, winning the last five meetings each by a decisive score. (@SportsnetSpec) https://t.co/WcFN0d8F2p
