The Edmonton Oilers were in town to visit Sidney Crosby and the Penguins on Thursday night.
It was not an even affair.
Despite the Penguins jumping out to an early 1-0 lead thanks to Kris Letang, the Oilers would go on to score seven straight goals on the Penguins. Not a pretty night if you are a Pittsburgh goaltender (we are looking at you Tristan Jarry).
Connor McDavid led the way with two goals an two assists, while Ryan Nugent-Hopkins would hit a significant career milestone with his 600th NHL point.
The Oilers broke their losing streak against the Flyers, and decided that they wanted to start a new streak in a completely dominant fashion.
