Ducks vs. Oilers | NHL Highlights | Nov 5, 2026

First e-bug on a bench tonight. Brett is your backup goaltender tonight for the Edmonton Oilers. Is Tristan Jarry a little bit too ill to suit up? So we're underway. Devin Levi, by the way, still not ready to go either. Here comes McColson streaking in for the shot against Brassois, who makes the save. And he mentioned 10 for 12, it's really not a 10 for 11, one of those was a major, and he can't be perfect on a major. A quick chance, and go Jack, with that lightning fast release, stopped by Tompkins, and in the hometown remixes, Zach Coleman has to fall back to center. First of seven games, Edmonton will wear this black, here's David Martin in the net, and then he was checked hard into the goal post. And they went after McDavid in the playoffs, but right here, it's the last hit. Hellison comes back, he just kind of catches him after he's made the play, and drives him into the bar. There's really nowhere for him to go here. And with that speed, he goes down hard. That's what they saw, that's what they're doing. That's one. Eckholm around the boards, Leo Carlson. In the immediate... Edmonton's going to have to find a way to cool off this red-hot Anaheim power play. Look at Goche. Quick shot scores. And Cutter Goche now has seven power play goals in his last four games. He is on a seismic tear. No other way to describe him right now. This power play, that's their 11th power play goal in the last four games. They have been outstanding. And for Goche, look how fast it's off of his stick. Great pass by Lacombe to find him. He gets the inside track on Huka Madulan. Once he's inside and gets this puck, like I said earlier, he loves to shoot it. He's looking to shoot it. Joseph with solid defense. Lacombe a little bit out of his reach. Can't clear it. Killorn inside McQueen. Point blank. Tough save made by Tompkins. Good to see Connor back on the bench here, and this is that good chance by Caulfield. Nice little backhand-forehand move. At some point, the worm is going to turn as far as the calls, and Anaheim is not taking full advantage at this point. Seneca to Carlson, back to Seneca. His shot, saved. Tompkins protects, short side. Off the draw, Draisaitl wins the draw. 12 out of 17 for the Oilers in this first period. Draisaitl to Pichard. For Evan Bouchard, he's got 10 of them. And this one is now a one-on-one deadlock. By Bouchard, good job by Colton Dow in front of the net here. Nugent Hopkins down low and back. McDavid finds Bouchard coming in from the blue line. He's the one that set it in motion, just drifts himself to the slot. Can't leave a dangerous man like him all the way open. He picks that corner with the wrister. Great job. It's a little bit of a sell on Dow in front. Goes right through him. Waving at it. Here comes Leo Carlson. Defended hard by Ekholm at the line. That freed the puck up for Joseph. Coming the other way. Dishes to McDavid with a hard backhander that's handled by Brisson. Luno toward the net. Deflected wide. Killorn. One more. Checked by Muka Medulin. Ekholm reaching for it. Draisaitl will find it. Off to McDavid. Through Luno. And here comes Connor McDavid. Shorthanded. Waiting. Shoot is going to save it. Revis with it. And. That's him. Scores shorthanded. 2-1. Tell you what, this is just a nice goal. One play broken up, he gets through there. Stick handles through. Gets his own rebound out of the air. On a nice play individually here for Draisaitl. Wants to put this into the right spot, but it goes right to McDavid. And then he does the rest from there. You can see the elevated shot and then pops it in himself. Nesterenko's the forward trying to slow him down. But he baseballs this one in, little tap, out of the air, 2-1 Edmonton. It was spirited. Seneca, wrist shot, just missed, blocker side, against Matt Tompkins, making just his eighth NHL start. 4-2-1 for his career, and the Ducks tie the game. Mentchukov put this on that or look back door with Seneca that brings us from the corner and he just spins and throws it in looking for a deflection. You can see Gauthier was reaching looking for a redirection but it bounces right to Mentchukov and he just chucks it towards the stick and right there it goes off the stick of Joseph and wondered how this one went in on first take but he was just trying to throw it back door. Honored during the game tonight, Jay waiting, dishing, one-timer Murphy, and he broke the stick, and now the Ducks, they have something brewing here, Caulfield, in over the line, Granlund, in front, Caulfield to nine-point play, rebound score, and Chukov's got two! Minchikov came into the game without a goal. Well, not a lot you could do about this one. As the blast by Murphy, the stick just explodes, and he backs up and just tries to play defense. But again, this is a little one thrown into that Washington. Somehow gets himself right into the spot where he's right in front of the goaltender. Sorry, that was Caulfield. And then the puck just bounces loose to Minchikov, exactly in the spot almost that he was in the last time. Coming right down into the mix, throws a sharp angle, and set up by Kapanen. He's got it back. He's been feeling it lately, Murphy throws it on net, Sabreswa, rebound, another stop on Kapanen. Max Jones, yeah, sets up the one-timer for Greisel, this is a good shift and a change on the fly, follow the bounce, great save by Beswa on that one, this one kicks the bar off the stick of Nugent-Hawkins on a beautiful pass to set it all in motion by Kapanen, but then they just keep going towards the goaltender and keep getting shots on net. Theoretically, not a bad matchup here for Edmonton. Edmonton capitalized on it yet, though. A couple of missed passes. David, the trailer! Bouchard shoots one! Rebound! And somehow it stayed out! A penalty kill for Edmonton. Top line versus third line. What a save by Brassois. First one by Bouchard goes wide. He chops at the second. Brassois with a big stop to keep it 3-2. Luno to Gauthier. Thank you. Boy, you had Carlson and Seneca bearing down on you. Here's a shot up high. Rebound scored right to Seneca. And it's the Ducks who get one lane. Beckett, Seneca with his knife. Knuckler, wrister from the blue line. And he saved it with the shoulder. I mean, that's the first chance by Seneca. Watch this one that comes through once it goes D to D. You're going to see a wrister that gets through. And it's a knuckler. But look at the traffic of Seneca. He's got to fight that one off. And then a beautiful little backhand pass. To pick up this puck. That's Luno, I think. Yeah, Luno, the defenseman. We've seen the defenseman of Anaheim jump down multiple times in this game. Oilers can't get it out. McComb with Gauthier directly behind him. Brantley. Gauthier in the bumper. Back door. And Seneca slams one home off a brilliant feed from Leo Carlson. Seneca's got a pair. And Anaheim's up 5-2 with its second power play goal of the night. Two power play goals in the first period of the first matchup. And this one here just... Nifty passing, beautiful little pass right there into the interior, then Gauthier, usually the shooter though, and you have to respect him so much in the slop, but he finds the pass wide, and then Carlson with a beautiful touch pass right through to Seneca, and he jams it home on the far side. It can lock down games on a consistent basis. Vincic off, rips one on net, blocked it in the corner by Tompkins, and you've got to get one before you can think about getting three. Noah Warren swings it on net, trying to create a turnover. Now Nugent Hopkins saucered ahead, capping it. Hits the line with speed, drop pass to the net. See, Breslau does not have it. It's still available in the blue paint, and now Brassoable to stick that in his hip pocket. Nice drop pass here by Kapanen, and this is a good shot by Mencikov. He gets it away. That's a solid save for Brasso. He flashes the glove, but he doesn't get it. This puck drops down in front of him, and right there you can see on the doorstep for Doc, he takes one swing at it. Jordan Doc will reset for Jake Walman, heavy on the puck, forcing a turnover, quick chance, McQueen stopped, rebound, Tompkins got bowled over, the puck stayed out. There's been a problem in this game for the Oilers, protecting the front of the house, and Big McQueen drives this one right in. Bouchard kicks it back to McDavid, shifted to himself on the half wall, returned it to Bouchard, McDavid, Nugent-Hopkins, centers, oh what a save, rebound score! The Oilers, it's 5-3 with still three and a half minutes to play. Athletic guy and goaltender, makes a quick save, the entry into the zone, McDavid, little button hook, gets this back to Bouchard, then everybody gets into their position, you're going to see Kapanen get lost in behind, and for McDavid it's the quick pass, first one denied, as I mentioned, Brasso has to explode, right to the left, right here with the left path, and then the nifty little hands by Kapanen, toe drags around, tucks it home. Looking, dishing, Nugent-Hopkins, what timer, oh! Scrabbled! Here's Bouchard to drive! That's wide! Draisaitl, button-hooking, pursued by Warren, chipped out to Ekholm. Bouchard, less than a minute a shot into a crowd. Rebound to David, back to a score! Draisaitl, 43 seconds to go! It's 5-4! There we go. By Draisaitl, he dents the bar on that one. You can hear it all the way throughout the building, but they just stay with it. And eventually, again, it's McDavid right to Draisaitl. Look how quickly he's looking to the top. Still 43.3 seconds. Rebound to the half wall. Two seconds.
