The Edmonton Oilers overcame a 2-0 deficit to secure a 4-2 victory over the Toronto Maple Leafs, pushing their winning streak to 11 games. The Leafs initially led with goals from Morgan Rielly and others, but the Oilers mounted a comeback with a backhand goal by Leon Draisaitl and a tying goal by Hyman, which was contested for offside by Leafs' coach Keefe. Ryan McLeod, playing on a line with McDavid and Draisaitl, scored the go-ahead goal, and Bouchard sealed the win with an empty-net goal. McLeod (1-1-2) and Bouchard (1-1-2) contributed significantly to the win, while Stuart Skinner made 26 saves. The Leafs are now on a four-game losing streak, with this being their first three-game losing streak in regulation since October 2021.

It's the first time the #Leafs have lost three in a row in regulation since Oct. 22-25, 2021.
The Leafs have dropped three straight games for the first time since Oct. 22-25, 2021 against San Jose, Philly and Carolina. The mood around the team was quite hot back then. It settled after they beat Chicago and finished with their best season in terms of wins and points.
The Oilers are on McLeod Nine with their 11th in a row βοΈ βοΈ #Oilers https://t.co/ALtFMil3C2
The @EdmontonOilers rally from a 2-0 2nd period deficit with 4 unanswered goals en route to a 4-2 win and extend their winning streak to 11 Straight wins! McLeod (1-1-2) tremendous 3rd period. Bouchard 1-1-2. Stuart Skinner 26 saves, now 15-2 in his 17 starts!
Harsh, harsh loss. #Leafs have lost four in a row for the second time this season. Oilers turn winning streak up to 11.
Four losses in a row for the Leafs. Toronto has only four regulation wins in their last 14 games, two of which were against San Jose.
how many games in a row have the oilers won? https://t.co/CDSnH5AlvX
