What a play.
After hemming the Senators in their own zone for an extensive amount of time, the Oilers cycled the puck to McDavid who completely blew by a well-positioned Chris Tierney en route to burying a highlight-reel goal.
Edmonton went on to win the game 3-2 thanks to this marvellous marker.
McDavid and Draisaitl have dominated Ottawa this season. In Wednesday’s contest, the two combined for eight points, with Draisaitl (3 goals) and McDavid (1 goal) manufacturing all of the Oilers’ goals in the game. The uber-talented duo have now combined for 41 points in eight games against the Senators.
