Summary

They allowed the first goal and trailed 3-1 and 4-2 before losing 5-4 in overtime.The Kings lead the best-of-7 series 3-2 and could eliminate the Oilers with a win in Game 6 at Crypto.com Arena on Thursday (10 p.m. ET; TBS, CBC, SN, TVAS, BSW)."Obviously starts have not been very good to us," Oilers captain Connor McDavid said. I mean, I think they're doing a good job of getting pucks to the net early in games … And obviously, we have to find a way to do the same thing." [RELATED: Complete Oilers vs. So, we're looking to do that in two days."McDavid had a three-point game (one goal, two assists) and has nine points (two goals, seven assists) in the series, but still thinks the Oilers haven't played their best game against the Kings."They're a good team, they're structured, they play hard," he said. In the last two games, there's certainly some things we can tighten up."The Oilers have scored 21 goals to the Kings' 14 but trail in the series. But the way they rallied to tie the game in the third period, with McDavid and Draisaitl playing on the same line and dominating play, especially in the second half of the period, their push looked like it could be too much for the Kings to handle.And then they barely touched the puck in overtime before Adrian Kempe scored at 1:12."We had we had the momentum going in," Draisaitl said.
