The Edmonton Oilers have tied the 2016-17 Columbus Blue Jackets for the second-longest winning streak in NHL history, achieving their 16th consecutive win after defeating the Nashville Predators 4-1. Stellar performances from players such as Connor McDavid, who scored 1 goal and 3 assists, and Leon Draisaitl, with a 1-2-3 line, along with goaltender Stuart Skinner's 29 saves, have been pivotal in the team's success. The Oilers have also been defensively strong, allowing 2 goals or less in their last 14 games. With a record of 24-3-0 in their last 27 games, the Oilers are now one win away from tying the all-time NHL record of 17 consecutive wins set by the 1992-93 Pittsburgh Penguins. Their next opportunity to match the record will come after the All-Star break in a game against the Vegas Golden Knights on February 6th, followed by a game on February 9th in Anaheim.
