Connor McDavid earns 100th NHL point as Oilers beat Panthers 4-3 in overtime
EDMONTON — Connor McDavid may have earned his 100th career NHL point, but his 102nd would matter more.
McDavid scored in overtime and added two assists as the Edmonton Oilers won their fourth game in a row with a 4-3 decision over the Florida Panthers on Wednesday.
McDavid got a breakaway late in overtime and got the puck away with 2.6 seconds left. Florida goalie James Reimer made the glove save, but the puck was ruled to be across the line after a video review.
“I thought it went in, just because he was already in his net, basically,” McDavid said. “It was definitely nice to be beat the clock for once. I’ve had two goals kind of called back due to the clock. It was definitely good to be on the right side.”
