Vegas top Oilers in OT

In Edmonton, the visiting Vegas Golden Knights’ Marc-Andre Fleury made 22 saves in a 3-2 win over the Oilers in extra time.

Jonathan Marchessault tied the game at 2-2 midway through the third period and Shea Theodore potted the game-winner in the extra session.

It was the same pair who collaborated in a win over the Calgary Flames on Sunday.

“It was a great play by [Marchessault],” Theodore said. “It was one of those plays where their guy kind of left the zone a little bit, and I kind of had to stay in between to see whether they were going to get it down or not. But he made a great play, and sometimes you just have to keep getting it to the net.

“When you can load up for a one-timer coming down the slot, you’re just trying to get all of it, and it was just a great pass.”

Alex Chiasson and Ryan Nugent-Hopkins scored fr the Oilers.

Edmonton held leads of 1-0 and 2-1.

“We are just not playing very well as a group right now,” Oilers head coach Dave Tippett said. “I thought we had addressed some things this morning, but our execution is so poor in a lot of different situations. Some of that is pure not getting the play made, and some is guys on their own page, going to their own spots and thinking that they can vary from the game plan.”

Nicolas Roy also scored for the Knights.

“A gutsy effort, three [games] in four nights, playing [Sunday] night and then back-to-back,” Vegas head coach Peter DeBoer said. “I thought our guys showed up and really did a good job, every guy out there that dressed, goalie on out. We needed that kind of effort tonight to win in here. We knew that our attention to detail had to be good, and it was.”

Mikko Koskinen made 45 saves in the loss.

“We’ve been able to get points because of our two goalies (Koskinen and Mike Smith), but going down the stretch, you can’t rely on them to make 40 or 50 saves a night,” Chiasson said. “There’s a disconnection in our game right now. There was a stretch where we were all five guys going up the ice, then another five breaking out together, forechecking together. Now we’re reading to see what one guy’s going to do, then reacting.”
