Hockey: NHL playoffs: Oilers equal series against Vegas

The Edmonton Oilers still have every shot at the next round of the NHL playoffs. With a 4:1 in front of their own fans, the series against the Vegas Golden Knights is balanced again.

The Edmonton Oilers won their second home game against the Vegas Golden Knights in the NHL playoffs and tied in the Western Conference Semifinals. After 4: 1 it is 2: 2 in the best-of-seven series.

The team around national ice hockey player Leon Draisaitl still has every chance of moving into the next round. Game five takes place in Las Vegas on Saturday night.

Draisaitl contributed the template to 3:0 by Mattias Ekholm and now has 18 points in the playoffs. Vegas pro Alex Pietrangelo caused a stir, smacking Draisaitl’s hand with his racquet with 87 seconds remaining and earning a five-minute penalty.

The Toronto Maple Leafs previously beat the Florida Panthers 2-1. In the semi-final series of the Eastern Conference, the team from Canada prevented the elimination, but is still 1: 3 behind after victories. Four achievements are required to progress.
