Evan Bouchard scored 5:38 into overtime and the Edmonton Oilers bounced back for a 4-3 win over the Vancouver Canucks in the second round of the Stanley Cup playoffs on Friday. The result levelled the best-of-seven series at 1-1, with Game 3 set for Sunday in Edmonton.

Draisaitl was listed as a game-time decision earlier in the day due to an undisclosed injury. in the box for tripping, J.T Miller wound up and looked like he was about to launch a big shot from the faceoff circle. Instead, he sliced a pass across the slot to Pettersson, who blasted a quick snap shot past an out-of-position Skinner 4:16 into the game.

Stationed at the goal line, the superstar centre sent a pass to Draisaitl in the slot and he fired it in to tie the game at 1-1 with his sixth goal of the playoffs 10:56 into the first. Silovs kept the Oilers from taking a lead into the locker room with some last-second heroics at the end of the opening frame.

Zadorov put the home side up once again 18:17 into the second. The bruising defenceman picked up a puck from Miller in the neutral zone, streaked down the ice and unleashed a wrist shot that soared up and under the cross bar to make it 3-2. McDavid used his otherworldly speed to level the score once again 5:27 into the third.
