Mason McTavish scored the game winner and Lukas Dostal made a season-high 46 saves as the Anaheim Ducks edged the visiting Edmonton Oilers 3-2 on Monday night.

Cutter Gauthier scored twice for the Ducks (34-35-8, 76 points), who avoided a third straight loss and won for the second time in five games.

Adam Henrique and Jeff Skinner responded for the Oilers (44-28-5, 93 points), who have lost back-to-back games and dropped to 6-4-1 over their last 11.

Olivier Rodrigue, who made his first NHL start on Monday, stopped 18 shots in the loss.

Anaheim took a 3-1 lead at 5:33 of the third as McTavish stripped Kasperi Kapanen of the puck in the Ducks’ zone and beat Rodrigue with a wrist shot on a breakaway for his team-leading 21st of the season.

Edmonton pulled to 3-2 at 16:29 of the third as Skinner tipped an Evan Bouchard shot past Dostal for his 16th of the season.

Gauthier scored twice in the second period to erase a 1-0 deficit.

Anaheim tied it 1-1 at 2:20 of the middle frame as Gauthier one-timed a Leo Carlsson feed past Rodrigue for his 16th at 2:20 of the second period.

The Ducks forward added his second of the period at 7:10, cutting around Bouchard and putting a backhand shot up and over Rodrigue’s glove.

Monday was Gauthier’s third two-goal game of the season. The 21-year-old has three goals and four assists in four career games against the Oilers.

Edmonton out-shot Anaheim 14-6 and led 1-0 after 20 minutes.

Henrique opened the scoring with 2:09 remaining in the first period, deflecting Jake Walman’s point shot past an out-of-position Dostal for his 11th of the season.

Trent Frederic, who made his Oilers debut on Saturday, missed Monday’s game due to an ankle injury.

Monday was the fourth and final meeting between the Ducks and Oilers. Anaheim has won two of the first three meetings between the Pacific Division rivals, taking a 5-3 decision on Dec. 29 and a 6-2 victory on March 4. Edmonton edged Anaheim 3-2 on Jan. 3.

Nezvolení Hamzy? To byl šok dne, přiznal Kejval. Sám kandidoval naposledy

Je vaše radost větší než při předchozích volbách, kdy jste neměl protikandidáta?I když ho nemáte, pořád je to volební souboj, protože Český olympijský výbor sdružuje všechny sporty a musí dojít k dohodě. Ale velmi jsem oceňoval formu, jakou zvolil můj protikandidát Libor Varhaník. Byla velmi kultivovaná a myslím, že nám oběma šlo o prospěch českého sportu. Ta forma kampaně mě možná potěšila ještě víc než výsledek.Byl jste sám v předvolební kampani aktivnější než v předchozích letech?Určitě. Měl jsem daleko víc schůzek, více jsme komunikovali. Sportovní prostředí je rozmanité, nemá pevně danou strukturu a hierarchii. Všichni vidí olympijský výbor někde na vrcholu pyramidy, ale v reálu to tak není.

Brasil terá torneio WTA 250 em São Paulo em setembro de 2025

O torneio também marca o retorno da capital paulista ao calendário oficial da WTA após um hiato de 25 anos — a última vez que São Paulo sediou um evento da categoria foi em 2000. Desde 2016, o Brasil não recebia um torneio do nível 250, quando o Rio Open e o WTA de Florianópolis saíram do calendário da entidade. — O São Paulo Open é mais um grande evento internacional que conseguimos conquistar para a Cidade de São Paulo. Isso demonstra que criamos um ambiente propício para a atração de negócios. Além de lazer de qualidade, O SP Open vai proporcionar outros benefícios diretos e indiretos para toda população. A presença de grandes atletas, com certeza, vai estimular a prática do tênis, contribuindo para o surgimento de novos campeões — afirmou Ricardo Nunes, Prefeito de São Paulo.

The Oilers’ best performance of the season came at the best time: ‘We want to finish the job’

LOS ANGELES — Sometimes scorelines don’t tell the whole story. A 3-1 win by the Edmonton Oilers in Game 5, a victory aided by an empty-netter, was Exhibit A.Not only did the Oilers come up with easily their best game of the series against the Los Angeles Kings on Tuesday, but it was also their most dominant and complete performance of the entire season.AdvertisementThis one wasn’t even close, or at least it shouldn’t have been. As Kings coach Jim Hiller bluntly said, “They were just better in every way.”“I don’t remember the last time we played as good a game as that,” winger Zach Hyman said. “It was still a nail-biter.”Sure, it was a tight margin, but the Oilers have made a clear case for which team is better in this matchup yet again. They’re now on the verge of […]

Al-Hilal convoca reunião de urgência para discutir futuro de Jorge Jesus, diz jornal saudita

O técnico Jorge Jesus pode estar com seus dias contados no Al-Hilal. Isso porque, segundo o jornal Asharq Al-Awsat, o time da Arábia Saudita convocou uma reunião de urgência, nesta quarta-feira, para discutir futuro do treinador português, que corre risco de demissão após a eliminação para o Al-Ahli na Liga dos Campeões da Ásia. Ainda conforme o portal, Jorge Jesus será demitido, caso haja um consenso em relação à saída do treinador. Além da eliminação para Al-Ahli na competição internacional, a briga pelo título do Campeonato Saudita também pesa contra o português de 70 anos — o Al-Hilal está na segunda colocação, seis pontos atrás do Al-Ittihad. Uma possível demissão de Jorge Jesus pode facilitar uma negociação com a seleção brasileira, uma vez que o treinador passou a ser o plano A da CBF após as notícias sobre um recuo […]
