**EDMONTON, Alberta –** Connor McDavid scored the lone goal of the game, powering the Edmonton Oilers to a 1-0 victory over the Los Angeles Kings Monday night at Rogers Place. The Oilers held off a late Kings push to secure the win, despite a relatively even shot count (Oilers 21, Kings 22).
McDavid’s 17th goal of the season, assisted by Darnell Nurse and Leon Draisaitl, came late in the second period at the 18:37 mark, proving to be the game-winner. Neither team was able to capitalize on power-play opportunities, with the Kings going 0-for-1 and the Oilers 0-for-2.
The game, broadcast on FanDuel Sports Network and the ESPN LA App, saw a tight defensive battle between two playoff contenders. The Kings, despite outshooting the Oilers in the final period, were unable to break through Edmonton’s defense. The win improves the Oilers’ record to 26-13-3, while the Kings fall to 24-11-5.
