The Kings have found some scoring balance but they squandered a strong start in Game 4 and have yet to slow Edmonton’s Leon Draisaitl in a series that has seen three overtime games so far.
. Meanwhile, the Kings regained some scoring balance, but so did Edmonton in a series where trading heavy blows has become the standard.
Both McLellan and the offending player, Kevin Fiala, shied away from addressing a questionable tripping call that led to Edmonton’s tying goal in the dying embers of the second period Sunday. But Oilers coach Jay Woodcroft, when asked about his team’s improved discipline, smugly responded that the game was well-officiated, harkening back to his post-Game 3 screed after a potential high stick went uncalled shortly before Trevor Moore’s overtime goal.
“Evander Kane is an absolute warrior, he’s built for this time of year, he’s somebody who leads through example and has an unbelievable skill set for a player like he is,” Woodcroft said. Kane and Hyman had combined for just one goal – Kane’s empty-netter – in the first three games. The Kings had also held scoring champion Connor McDavid pointless at even strength until he picked up two five-on-five assists in Game 4.
