The Edmonton Oilers are on a mission to rectify their previous error of squandering a 3-1 lead in the third period, leading to a 4-3 overtime loss. In their latest game against the LA Kings, they achieved just that by emerging victorious.
However, it cannot be ignored that the officiating played a significant role in the outcome of the match. On Wednesday night, Leon Draisaitl found the back of the net to give the Oilers a comfortable 2-0 lead.
