McDavid Stretches Point Streak to 17 as Oilers Take Advantage of Reeling Jets

  • On Thursday, the Edmonton Oilers beat the Winnipeg Jets 4-3 in Winnipeg, completing a three-game season sweep and moving Edmonton to 22-16-6.
  • The Winnipeg Jets built a two-goal first-period lead before mistakes, including a puck into the crowd, handed Edmonton a power-play chance; Winnipeg went 0-for-2 on the power play.
  • McDavid then set up Evan Bouchard for the go-ahead blast with about nine minutes to play, after Zach Hyman tied the game just under 12 minutes earlier.
  • The loss was Winnipeg's 11th straight, deepening their slide and standings trouble as the Jets fell to a 15-22-5 record and remain last in the NHL, hosting Los Angeles on Friday.
  • Roster changes — including sitting Vlad Namestnikov, calling up Danny Zhilkin, Cole Koepke's addition, and Logan Stanley's return — have compounded the challenge amid recurring losses described as a bad-movie loop.
