LOS ANGELES — Zach Hyman and Leon Draisaitl scored twice, and the Edmonton Oilers defeated the Los Angeles Kings 6-1 on Friday to take a 2-1 lead in their first-round playoff series.
Drew Doughty replied with his second goal of the playoffs for Los Angeles and Cam Talbot stopped 35 shots. Game 4 of the best-of-seven matchup is set for Sunday night at Crypto.com arena. The series shifts back to Edmonton for Game 5 at Rogers Place. Mattias Ekholm picked off a no-look outlet pass from Doughty and fed Hyman alone in front. The Oilers forward had a couple whacks at the puck before scoring his league-leading fifth goal of the post-season.
Doughty got the Kings on the board 5:32 into the second period by sneaking past Kane from the blue line and burying a cross-ice pass from Quinton Byfield into an open cage to give life to Crypto.com arena. Tempers flared in the third when Andreas Englund caught Kane with a high hit 6:19 into the period. A scrum ensued before Kane and Englund dropped the gloves for a fight.
