EDMONTON, Alberta (AP) — Connor Brown scored twice, Connor McDavid had three assists in his return to the lineup and the injury-riddled Edmonton Oilers moved within a hair of wrapping up a playoff spot, beating the St. Louis Blues 4-3 on Wednesday night.
The Oilers would have clinched a postseason berth if the Calgary Flames lost in regulation rather than overtime in Anaheim.
