Sam Gagner is one of 2 players in NHL history to record an 8 point night. 4 goals 4 assists. He did this with the Oilers 11 years ago and was the 1st, 2nd and 3rd star that night. A few years later, In the 2016/17 season, we saw Gagner now with the Columbus Blue Jackets go on an absolute tear, winning 16 consecutive games in a row. The 2nd most all time just 1 short of the Penguins record of 17. Noteworthy here, is that 16th game came against the Edmonton oilers in a 3-1 victory. How ironic that now, 7 years later and back with Edmonton, he had another shot at NHL history.
The Oilers themselves are on a heater and had won 13 in a row coming into last nights matchup with a chance to make it 14 against – none other than Gagner’s former club the Columbus Blue Jackets. Funny how things can play out but after taking this one 4-1, the Oilers in fact had won 14 in a row with Sam Gagner becoming the first player in NHL history to be a part of not 1 but now 2 14 game winning streaks with 2 different NHL clubs. Stuart Skinner also notably passed Grant Fuhr for a franchise record 11 consecutive wins! It was a historic night in Edmonton and I cover it all in todays NHL video!

How far can the Oilers take this streak?
It's funny that some 2 months ago everybody was hating the Oilers for being trash (not my words), and now they are on W14 streak
He's called papa clutch for a reason
Oilers all the way
Wow these oilers are on another level
Considering after he left the Edmonton Oilers his point production went down and considering his point production has been going back up since being back with them to the Oilers it is safe to say he was meant to be an Oiler and he was never meant to leave and I would personally like to thank him for his years as a Vancouver Canuck because my first ever hockey game I saw him score his first goal as a Vancouver Canucks and he was one of my favorite players in Edmonton so that made probably my decade
There are several players who’ve had an 8 point game!
They gave him 8 points, but he earned 7. There was a phantom assist where he never made contact with the puck. I refuse to give him credit for being in the 8 point club.
Happy the Oilers are playing well. They have had the talent
We need to make them blue lines bigger
His value just rocketed 😂 teams are gonna be trying to buy the horseshoe shoved up his ass
If I had a dollar for every time “witnessing NHL history” was used as a video title this season, I wouldn’t be a rich man but I’d definitely have a good bit of cash.
It’s never anything good either, it’s always something like “Kirill Kaprizov is the first player ever named Kirill to get 3 points 3 games in a row.”
It’s like the NHL equivalent to when every single mainstream media outlet has “BREAKING NEWS”, you’re expecting another 9/11 but instead they tell you the Boston Red Sox head coach resigned or some shit
Straight up, the oilers coach is crazy, as a ranger fan I remember he coached 2 games back in 2021 since the main staff was out w Covid, and those 2 games he coached were a 9-0 win and a 7-1 win
Wow. I don't remember him playing like that in Philly. But to be fair..to be fair. To be fairrrr. He was young and developing. And maybe there could only be room for 1 Gagne. It's always good to see a former flyer do well
What is up with Elvis retreating to within his net? Has he always done this? We saw it like 3 or 4 times in this video alone. I've heard people say "stay in the net" but that is ridiculous.
I was at the game last night. Let me just say, it was an absolutely INSANE atmosphere!
A year before Gagner was a London Knight, Corey Perry led the Knights to a 31 game unbeaten streak, a CHL record……maybe some good vibes are coming.
Incredible.
I’ve never seen a team go from losing nearly every game to winning literally every game like this. Wtf 😂
Appreciate your laid back style !
14x bravo !
Chicago is worst in the league. Watch in playoffs, again, neutralize McDavids line they are out, unless they get miraculous goaltending, every game. Wont get past first round, more head scratching.
If you choose to use an expression it would be best to use it correctly. THE PROOF OF THE PUDDING IS IN THE EATING.
Gnager gets 16 against Edmonton has a Blue Jacket then gets 14 against the Blue Jackets as an Oiler. lol cool.
These guys are winning the cup
Warren Scoregoal needs a better mugshot for those stars of the game bits
Looks like Sam Gagner went from "Gagner-ade" to "Gagner-amazing"! 🏒😂
lmao @ gudbransson for pushing the oiler playing into his own goalie then looking for a call 🤣
