Watch as the Edmonton Oilers bench and Rogers Place crowd erupt after Connor Brown redirected Evander Kane’s centring feed to score his first goal of the season and first as an Oiler.

Brown's reaction, the team's response, and the fans' lengthy ovation were absolutely beautiful!
It's this kind of thing that makes me proud to be a lifelong Oilers fan. It's not just Gretzky, or McDavid, or the 5 cups in 7 years back when I was a kid. It's the love. The kind that takes guys like Kane and Perry and turns their careers, and their lives around. ❤
Worst signing in the history of Edmonton Oilers
He will catch Austin Matthews in the last 20 games… I'm sure!
I haven't seen a look of relief on a player like that since Anthony Young on the Mets finally got a win after a 26 game losing streak.
The oilers great signing of a 4 million dollar player finally scores one with a month of hockey left. So sad.
You can't hate the Oilers, you just can't
I mean honestly just look at the look on his face. Sheer delight, well done my guy!
Who's Connor Brown? Never heard of him before…
Still the city of champions❤
Delay of game penalty
Oilers out in the 1st round. Again. Good.
The way the crowd cheered for Connor Brown was nothing but wholesome. Such a great moment. He was smiling all over. Great stuff.
We need Jack for the playoffs!!! It's such a tragedy he isn't allowed to call the most important games of the year. Make it happen, sportsnet.
Not gonna lie, that was more wholesome than I could've imagined. Well done, Edmonton!
This is just a taste of what hockey in Edmonton is like In the playoffs. Mid April can’t come quick enough.
AHL player
“After further review, No Goal”
Jack always knows exactly what to say. He's got a way with words. That was an awesome moment for Oiler fans.
Doesn't high-five Ceci
Nice
Woke up my parents cheering for brown, no regrets😂
Mtl canadiens fan, but here I am hopping on the Connor McBandwagon
What a moment! Congrats to Connor Brown
He won’t be an oiler next year I’m sure of it.
I absolutely love Brown, I mean we bring in a guy to score goals and possibly be Mcdavids right hand guy. Instead we got a penalty killing machine, who has bought in to his role as a minute killer and shutdown line. Sure you heard his name all year about not scoring, but it was always from a place of hope. He has been way more then we could have asked for, just in a way we never knew we would get. He is going to be worth every penny in the playoffs, when we need to fend off a lead that our top stars gave us. There are 2 sides to hockey offence and defense, the oilers have had 1 of those for years. We are finally seeing how important the other side can be, Brown is a huge part of that. I literally leapt outta my chair when he scored, it was so well deserved after how defensively sound he has been all year. Hope he can get a couple more before seasons end, but thank you for sacrificing goals for team needs.
Jets fan but this gave me the chills, great to see it.
And he still hasnt scored with his stick this season lol😂
You can tell how happy kane is for brown too! Whole team was and the crowd. Love it.
Just seeing him admire his puck in the net was priceless. Like a Canadian Heritage moment
He scored goal #7 for the team that night, after almost killing the 2-on-1 by getting in the way of the puck carrier, and did nothing more than exist in a lucky spot. Bloody hell, why is this guy still in the NHL?
My dad is an oilers fan and he rarely texts during games but he had to tell me about Brown
Bizarre that a regular starting forward on a team with such firepower scores his first goal mid March.
i don't think he touched it
I was one of those people that was on brown for not scoring . I am so happy for
him to get a goal!!! And finally get that monkey off his back!! He seemed cursed !!! Good stuff brownie!! Huge night, he’ll remember that one!
Such a happy moment for Connor Brown! 👍❤️🥅🏒🥋🇨🇦He sure is a digger and fighter making lots of great plays helping teammates score.Oilers Nation!✨👍☕️☕️☕️ EDMONTON 🐅 The Avalanche game this Saturday will rock!
that was about as heartwarming as it gets. Congrats Connor!
Yay! Bread and circuses for the people. 😮
Absolutely hate the oilers, but things like this are why I love hockey. Good job Connor Brown, keep up the hard work.
Means the crowd loves him! More to come Brown!💙🧡
