The Oilers will meet the Vegas Golden Knights in the second round
Yamamoto — described as the “little engine that could” by Edmonton head coach Jay Woodcroft — circled to the top of the faceoff circle and threw the puck through traffic into the top corner of the Kings’ net at 16:57.
Edmonton starter Stuart Skinner made a series-high 40 saves for the win, and was dealt bad luck in the third period. Joonas Korpisalo stopped 21 shots in the loss after he was pulled in the second period of Game 5 in Edmonton. “I don’t think anyone would have predicted swings quite like that,” McDavid said. “Three goals one period, the other team scores three the next. Two-goal leads getting erased pretty quick.”
Since trailing 3-0 after the first period of Game 4 in Los Angeles, nine different Oilers have combined for 16 goals.
