Bouchard

When they lost that challenge, Edmonton was awarded a two-minute power play and needed only 10 seconds of it with Evan Bouchard scoring what proved to be the game-winner on a tipin from the crease.

The Oilers, blanked on the power play in the first two games, had two goals, both by Bouchard, with the man advantage Friday.

“It feels good right now to get that win,” said Leon Draisaitl, who had two assists, including the pass that set up Bouchard’s game-winner.

Bouchard doubled the lead six minutes later, firing a slap shot past Kuemper from the top of the circles three seconds after the Kings’ Andrei Kuzmenko went off for interference.

Bouchard needed just 10 seconds to make the Kings pay, scoring Edmonton’s second power-play goal on a tip-in from Kuemper’s left.
