Edmonton Oilers Extend Win Streak to Four with 6-3 Victory over Pittsburgh Penguins

McDavid's 46th Goal Leads the Charge

EDMONTON, AB—Connor McDavid extended his goal-scoring streak to five games and set a new career-high with his 46th goal of the season as the Edmonton Oilers defeated the Pittsburgh Penguins 6-3 on Sunday night.

McDavid opened the scoring with a power-play goal midway through the first period, and he added another goal in the second period to give the Oilers a 2-0 lead.

The Penguins responded with two goals of their own in the second period to tie the game, but the Oilers regained the lead in the third period with goals from Evan Bouchard and Leon Draisaitl.

McDavid's 46 goals this season is the most by any Oilers player since Wayne Gretzky scored 52 goals in 1981-82.

Oilers Continue to Impress

The Oilers have now won four straight games and have a 9-5-0 record this season.

The Oilers' success has been built on their high-powered offense, which is led by McDavid and Draisaitl.

The Oilers will look to continue their winning ways when they host the Buffalo Sabres on Tuesday night.

Conclusion

The Oilers' victory over the Penguins was a statement win for a team that is quickly becoming one of the most dangerous in the NHL.

The Oilers have a lot of talent, and they are starting to play together as a cohesive unit.

If the Oilers can continue to play at this level, they will be a force to be reckoned with in the playoffs.
