Never underestimate the resilience of the Edmonton Oilers as they storm through the NHL playoffs, exemplified by their latest performance against the Vegas Golden Knights. The Oilers overcame a 2-0 deficit to secure a 4-2 victory, marking their fifth consecutive playoff comeback of this postseason, an NHL record. It was Zach Hyman's late goal that sealed the win, drawing praise from head coach Kris Knoblauch for the maturity and experience of his players. Meanwhile, the Golden Knights faced a shocking defeat, having never lost in regulation when leading by two goals in the playoffs before this.

Mark Stone of the Golden Knights, who scored both goals earlier in the game, recognized the importance of bouncing back in the upcoming Game 2. Edmonton's Leon Draisaitl contributed significantly with a goal and an assist, fortifying his team's attack alongside Connor McDavid, who extended his postseason assist streak. The Oilers are clearly demonstrating their capability to win in unconventional ways, showcasing depth in their scoring options. As the playoffs progress, both teams will need to adjust quickly to remain competitive.
