The Oilers scored a power-play goal just 63 seconds into the game. With the Blues penalized for starting the game with an incorrect lineup, Hyman backhanded the puck through Binnington from point-blank range.

That was Hyman's fifth goal in his last three games.

Kyrou tied the game 1-1 at 6:47 of the first period. Pavel Buchnevich stole the puck behind the Edmonton net and passed to Kyrou, who came down the middle of the ice on a line change.

Yamamoto extended Edmonton's lead to 3-1 by tipping Barrie's wrist shot from the right point at 10:36 of the third period. It was his 100th NHL point.

But just 49 seconds later, Thomas cut the margin to 3-2 by taking Ivan Barbashev's pass from the right boards and scoring on a snap shot from the slot.

Draisaitl's apparent winning goal in overtime was negated by an offside challenge. The game went to the shootout, where Kyrou scored the only goal.
