Draisaitl propels Oilers past Kings, into second in Pacific. MORE:
The win not only put the Oilers one point ahead of the Kings, it gave them 100 points for the second straight season. The last time Edmonton reached the century mark in back-to-back seasons was 1987 under a different points structure.
Draisaitl had the go-ahead score on a power play when he put in a rebound past Pheonix Copley in front of Los Angeles' net. It was Draisaitl's 51st goal of the season and his league-leading 31st on the power play. Ryan Nugent-Hopkins and Darnell Nurse also scored for the Oilers while Stuart Skinner stopped 20 shots. Copley made 30 saves for the Kings.
