The Rangers and Oilers played  Tommy Wingels Men Jersey the game of the night in the NHL on Friday. Edmonton captain Connor McDavid made the play of the nightand probably of the season.And to write that McDavid, with his team down a goal, collected a loose puck in the offensive end, skated into the neutral zone Ray Bourque Women Jersey , circled back to the red line, charged forward into the New York zone, split four Rangers skaters who had him surrounded, deked goalie Alexandar Georgiev and then slid a backhander into an opennet to tie the game with just under three minutes to play in regulation undersells the moment.Because, just look at this:"It's probably not the best idea to take on four Brendan Gaunce Women Jersey  guys every night, but the situation kind of was weird. Everybody was kind of coming up. I was coming down the pipe," McDavid said.The goal enabled Edmonton to get the game to overtime. It should surprise no one that McDavid then a sisted on Leon Draisaitl's goal 3:27 into the extra se sion, which gave the Oilers a 6 Tim Schaller Jersey -5 victory in a game theytrailed 4-1.It also should not be a shock that McDavid didn't crow about being able to score 1-on-4.MORE: "It was a nice goal. I've scored some nice ones in my career and that's up there with a few of them," he said. He did note that the game situation, plus the fact the Oilers retired Hall of  Alex Petrovic Jersey Fame defenseman Kevin Lowe's No. 4 jersey Friday at Rogers Place, made the moment feel "a little bigger than just a game in November."NHL POWER RANKINGS: Teammates Zach Hyman Tuukka Rask Women Jersey  and Darnell Nurse were willing to offersuperlatives. Hyman called it the "best" goal he has seen, while Nursewith McDavid sitting to his rightcalled it "probably the nicest" he hasseen.MORE: "He's scored some pretty special Axel Andersson Jersey  goals, but the one tonight had a huge impact on the game," Oilers coach Dave Tippettsaid.McDavid has collected points in all 10 of his team's games this season (eight goals, 14 a sists). His hot streak has gone hand in hand with Edmonton's torrid start. The Oilers Rick Nash Women Jersey  are 9-1-0 and leading the Pacific Division by three points over the Flames, who will host the Rangers in the "Hockey Night in Canada" nightcap Saturday. Their next game is Tuesday in Detroit against the Red Wings.
