Edmonton started off the game with momentum. They made the most of their double-minor power play, getting pucks to the net and creating opportunities. Ryan Nugent-Hopkins scored his first of the season off a feed from Connor McDavid and Jordan Eberle. However, the lead wouldn’t last long, and Kevin Hayes would tie the game soon after. They would head into the intermission with the score knotted at one.
In the second period, Jesse Puljujarvi made an unbelievable play on an Edmonton 2-on-1.
