EDMONTON, Alberta (AP) — Connor McDavid earned his 100th career NHL point — but his 102nd was an even bigger deal.
McDavid scored the winning goal in overtime as the Edmonton Oilers won their fourth game in a row, 4-3 over the Florida Panthers on Wednesday night.
McDavid, who also had two assists in the game, got a breakaway late in overtime and got the puck away with 2.6 seconds left. Florida’s James Reimer made the glove save, but the puck was ruled to be across the line via video review.
“I thought it went in, just because he was already in his net, basically,” McDavid said.
