Apr 27, 2025; Edmonton, Alberta, CAN; The Edmonton Oilers celebrate a goal scored by forward Leon Draisaitl (29) during overtime against the Los Angeles Kings in game four of the first round of the 2025 Stanley Cup Playoffs at Rogers Place. Mandatory Credit: Perry Nelson-Imagn Images Leon Draisaitl scored his first career playoff overtime goal to cap a four-point performance as the host Edmonton Oilers claimed a thrilling 4-3 comeback victory over the Los Angeles Kings on Sunday to even their Stanley Cup playoff series.
Evan Bouchard scored twice and Corey Perry added a single for the Oilers, who erased a two-goal third-period deficit to force overtime. With the win, they tied the best-of-seven Western Conference first-round series at 2-2.
Connor McDavid netted two helpers and goaltender Calvin Pickard made 38 saves.
With Vladislav Gavrikov in the penalty box for a tripping infraction, Draisaitl buried a loose puck in a wild scramble at 18:18 of extra time. Draisaitl has collected points in 18 consecutive playoff games against the Kings (17 goals, 18 assists).
Game 5 of the series will be Tuesday in Los Angeles. The home team has won all four games.
Trevor Moore, Warren Foegele and Kevin Fiala scored for the Kings, who have blown third-period leads in three of four games this series. Phil Danault collected two assists and goalie Darcy Kuemper stopped 44 shots.
Edmonton has eliminated the Kings in first round of the playoffs in each of the past three years and now has the momentum to do it again.
The Kings had more jump from the drop of the puck and were rewarded when Moore opened the scoring at the 10:35 mark. Foegele gave Los Angeles a 2-0 lead 91 seconds into the second period.
After Perry’s power-play goal — when he batted a rebound out of the air — put the Oilers on the board at 4:11 of the frame, Fiala restored the Kings’ two-goal lead three minutes later with a breakaway tally.
To the surprise of nobody, the Oilers had another late push. Bouchard made it a one-goal game at 7:51 of the third period when he chopped a puck from the slot that bounded into the net.
Bouchard then tied the clash with 28.4 seconds remaining in regulation. Seconds after he prevented a cleaning attempt, Bouchard unloaded a one-timer from the point and became only the fourth defenseman in history to score multiple goals in consecutive games.
Edmonton has outscored the Kings 11-5 in the third period this series.

Meet the man carrying the hopes of Morocco on his shoulders
It was Argentina’s World Cup in Qatar but before Lionel Messi’s magic moment, the other team to light up the tournament was Morocco. They became the first ever African team to reach the semi-finals, eliminating European heavyweights along the way.In doing so, Morocco were more than just successful, they were a symbol, an inspiration. Their combination of defensive organisation with astonishing intensity made them difficult to play let alone beat. All the more remarkable given the preparation time. Walid Regragui was the coach who made it happen but had only taken charge of his first game less than two months prior to the World Cup. The speed with which he galvanised that group of players was remarkable and a testament to his coaching abilities. "We had only a few months to quickly refocus the players, get them to adapt to […]
