Ducks’ win streak ends against Oilers despite Mikael Granlund’s hat trick

Edmonton Oilers broke the NHL record with four defencemen scoring in 3:49, snapping Anaheim Ducks' seven-game win streak in a 7-4 game.

  • On Jan. 26, 2026 at Rogers Place, Edmonton Oilers defencemen scored four goals in 3:49, setting the NHL record for fastest four goals by defencemen and securing the win over Anaheim Ducks.
