Chicago's Patrick Kane cleaned up a rebound to forge a 5-5 tie
with 3:11 remaining in the third period before Edmonton answered
in the final minute.
Evander Kane's cross-slot feed sailed past Blackhawks defensemen
Caleb Jones and Seth Jones to an unmarked Draisaitl, who
celebrated his 27th birthday with his fourth goal of the season.
McDavid scored twice during an eight-minute stretch in the
second period before deking Chicago defenseman Jake McCabe and
beating goalie Alex Stalock between the pads to give Edmonton a
5-4 lead midway into the third. McDavid has a team-leading eight
goals on the season.
Edmonton's Ryan Nugent-Hopkins matched Draisaitl with one goal
and two assists, and Zach Hyman scored his third goal in as many
games. Jack Campbell finished with 31 saves for the Oilers, who
went 3-for-7 on the power play to win their third straight game.
Chicago's Max Domi scored on a five-on-three power play and
added two assists, and Kane also had a goal and two assists.
Captain Jonathan Toews, Andreas Athanasiou and Reese Johnson
also tallied and Stalock turned aside 32 shots for the
Blackhawks, who went 2-for-10 on the power play as their
four-game winning streak ended.
Evander Kane was whistled for an unsportsmanlike-conduct penalty
after chirping from the bench to give Chicago a five-on-three
advantage late in the second period. Domi made the Oilers pay by
blasting a shot from the edge of the left circle past Campbell
to give the Blackhawks a 4-3 lead with 3:14 left before the
second intermission.
Nugent-Hopkins forged a tie 24 seconds into the third period by
converting Draisaitl's feed for a power-play goal.
McDavid wired a hard diagonal pass to set up a one-timer by
Hyman to open the scoring midway into the first period.
Athanasiou scored on a breakaway nearly three minutes later, and
Johnson cleaned up a rebound to give Chicago a 2-1 lead with
4:22 left in the first period.
McDavid sandwiched goals around Toews' deflection of Domi's
shot-pass at 1:33 of the second period.
