McDavid’s Patience Being Tested as Oilers Keep Giving Away Leads
The Edmonton Oilers’ early-season struggles are starting to feel all too familiar, as October has traditionally not been the team’s best month. Unfortunately, the concerns have carried over into November as the team has given away multiple two-goal leads.
Through the first seven games of this NHL season, the Edmonton Oilers averaged 1.55 goals per 60 during five-on-five play. After seven games in 2024-25, Edmonton’s five-on-five goals per 60 of 1.57 was also near the bottom of the league. The club recovered from there; in the final 75 games, it posted 2.56 goals per 60.
McDavid's primary assist on Roslovic's opening goal was his 1,100th career point in his 726th career game (364G, 737A), making the Oilers captain the 69th player to reach the milestone and the fourth-fastest in League history behind Wayne Gretzky (464 games), Mario Lemieux (550) and Mike Bossy (725).
After a brutal loss to the St. Louis Blues two nights ago, the Edmonton Oilers headed south to Dallas looking to make up for mistakes made in that game.
The Oilers have used 27 different trios to begin their 10 games, a jaw-dropping total without even considering how often they’ve altered lines within specific contests as well. The start of the season was always going to be about exploration, but Knoblauch has taken that idea to the extreme.
Evan Bouchard scored 2:43 into overtime and the Edmonton Oilers beat the Chicago Blackhawks 3-2 on Saturday night.
Tyler Bertuzzi and André Burakovsky scored for the Chicago Blackhawks (5-4-3) in their second straight loss and third in the last four. Spencer Knight had 27 saves.
