LOS ANGELES, CA -Momentum and lessons learned are the name of the game for the Edmonton Oilers following Game 4 in Los Angeles.
Edmonton finds themselves in a familiar situation to the one they encountered during last year's series between these two sides following a spectacular comeback at Crypto.com Arena on Sunday night to tie their series with the Kings 2-2 heading into Tuesday night's Game 5 at Rogers Place against the Los Angeles Kings.
It wasn't easy for the Oilers, who fell down 3-0 in the first period and had to battle back for most of the final 40 minutes of regulation before Zach Hyman notched the game winner 10:29 into overtime.
However, after the momentous win, the Oilers hope the winds of fortune are blowing in their favour come Tuesday night.
"Well, we're going to find out. We certainly think so," Connor McDavid said when asked Monday morning about a potential shift in the series' advantage. "I think it brings everybody together. Obviously, I would expect some good momentum heading into Game 5."
