and have scored seven power play goals on 15 chances in the series, but Edmonton’s dormant power play came to life when it needed it most — scoring twice in the victory, and have now cut the Kings’ series lead to 2-1.

Trevor Moore, Adriam Kempe, Drew Doughty and Kevin Fiala scored for the Kings, while Bouchard and Connor Brown scored twice. Evander Kane and Ryan Nugent-Hopkins scored for Edmonton, while Connor McDavid and Brown added empty-netters.

Edmonton jumped out to a 2-0 lead before the game was even nine minutes old.

But the Kings held their own, and Kempe’s blast made it 2-1 late in the first period. Fiala and Doughty then scored power-play goals in the second period to give the Kings their first lead of the game.

It was a wild second period.

After Doughty’s point shot on the power play gave the Kings their first lead of the game with 4:53 remaining in the frame, the Oilers’ Brown tied the game just 2:12 later.

But the Kings weren’t rattled as Moore scored his first goal of the series just nine seconds later when he drove to the net and outmuscled Oilers defenceman Jake Walman, putting a backhand through the five-hole of Pickard to give the Kings the lead.

The Kings knew the Oilers would be desperate in the third period, and after holding off a small flurry of chances early in the period, the Kings were able to calm it down.

But Edmonton kept pushing as Kings were doing everything they could to keep their 4-3 lead, but the Oilers found a way.

With 6:40 left in the game, Kane crashed the net in a goalmouth scramble and kept whacking away at the puck and it just barely crossed the line to tie the game.

After the officials reviewed the goal to see if it was kicked in, it was determined a good goal, but Kings head coach Jim Hiller took a gamble and challenged for goaltender interference.

After review, it was called a good goal, sending the Oilers to the power play. It took just 10 seconds for the Oilers to make the Kings pay when forward Leon Draisaitl and Bouchard converted a nice give-and-go to redirect a shot past Kuemper and give the Oilers the lead for good.

Kuemper made 30 saves in the loss for the Kings, while Calvin Pickard made 23 saves in his first start of the series for Edmonton.
