Alongside Brown, Ryan Nugent-Hopkins, Darnell Nurse, Zach Hyman, and Trent Frederic each added to the score sheet, showcasing a balanced offensive effort.

The Oilers clinched the series decisively by winning four straight, overcoming the Kings in a best-of-seven matchup and will now face the Vegas Golden Knights. The Kings were left struggling, having not won a playoff series since their 2014 championship run, and have now been eliminated by the Oilers in four consecutive first-round encounters.
