Edmonton Oilers Achieve Dramatic Win Over St. Louis Blues – Edmonton | The Canadian News

Kailer Yamamoto scored the winning goal with 27.8 seconds left in the third period to lead the Edmonton Oilers to a 5-4 victory over the St. Louis Blues.

The Blues, who boast the second-place power play in the NHL, took the lead in the men’s lead with 5:42 remaining from third. Jordan’s only time Kyrou ticked on Mikko Koskinen’s glove and entered.

McDavid set Leon Draisaitl up for a power play goal early in the second. Robert Bortuzzo took out the Blues even just before the game’s midpoint.

St. Louis responded in the third with a goal from Ivan Barbashev and Vladimir Tarasenko, who tied at 12:12 to go.

In the last minute, Draisaitl sent a pass from the right wing into the slot. Yamamoto took advantage of a single time for his third of the season.
