Edmonton goes full chaos mode to flip the script in Game 3 — someone call the fire department.
On April 25, 2025, the Edmonton Oilers threw a full-blown goal party and forgot to tell the Kings it wasn’t a potluck. Final score: Oilers 7, Kings 4. If you love chaotic hockey energy, this was basically Christmas morning with bonus fireworks.
Things started off smooth for Edmonton, with Ryan Nugent-Hopkins and Evan Bouchard firing off quick goals like they had early dinner plans. The Kings, clearly not amused, roared back with four goals of their own — including one from Drew Doughty, who still looks like he enjoys ruining everyone’s good time.
Heading into the third period, it was 4–3 for the Kings and Oilers fans were dangerously close to writing angry tweets. But then, boom — Evander Kane tied it up faster than you can say “we’re back, baby,” and ten seconds later (yes, ten!) Evan Bouchard struck again on the power play. Somewhere, a poor Kings fan definitely dropped their beer.
Not to be outdone, Connor McDavid and Connor Brown added empty-netters just to rub a little extra salt on the LA wounds. Kings goalie Cam Talbot probably had “Leave meeting” vibes by that point.
Meanwhile, Calvin Pickard — getting his first start this series — decided to casually save 25 shots and pretend like this chaos was totally normal.
The Oilers now trail just 2–1 in the series, but if they keep scoring like it’s a Costco sample day, this thing’s about to get real spicy.
