Coming into last nights Edmonton Oilers vs Anaheim Ducks game, The Oilers were on a tear having won 10 of their last 11 but it was what Ryan Nugent-Hopkins accomplished that saw the Oilers make NHL history! Picking up his 100th point, means the Oilers now officially have not 1, not 2 but 3 players in Connor McDavid, Leon Draisaitl and now Ryan Nugent-Hopkins to hit the century mark this year making them just the 14th team in NHL history to accomplish this feat and the first team since the 95-96 Penguins did it with Lemieux, Jagr and Francis.
As for the oilers, they went on to win this one 3-1 picking up points in their 12th straight game winning their 6th in a row which now means they are within just a point of taking the lead in the Pacific. I cover it all in todays NHL video!

The Oilers suddenly look dominant. Could it finally be THE year for McDavid and the Oilers to get a cup?
Bruins winning cup and I’m avalanche fan
Congrats in advance on McDavid eclipsing 150 in the next official period he plays.
The Oilers had a deep enough team last year… undone by defensive lapses, inconsistent goaltending and injuries. Draisaitl And McDavid lead the league in postseason scoring… despite Drai playing on one leg…
this year, the oilers have three guys over 100 points… 7 guys with over 10 goals and 11 guys with more than twenty points. If thatès not depth…? what is?
Oilers will make a good run for the cup. Congrats on that achievement. Thanks for keeping the Ducks on track for Bedard.
Blues fan here jumping on the Oilers bandwagon for the playoffs. Big fan of Mcdavid, Drai and Nuge.
Just to clarify, they repeated history, for the 14th time, not made it.
That's only means something before the playoffs. Don't be haten when they get knocked out in the first round 🤣🤣🤣
Habs fan here: Keep it up Oilers!
Yes
Nuge must be talking about his date with Kane.
Imagine Hyman gets like 9 points in one game and then 10 points somehow
we still could have another Battle of Alberta again. Im a Flames fan btw….
Hopkins my goat
Nurse garb
Man I hope they carry this heat into the playoffs!
NUUUGEEEEE
10/11 is great, but I mean.. they played the worst teams.
My wife actively despises Edmonton as a longtime Dallas fan, but Edmonton is where my family immigrated originally, so I've always felt a bond with the city. And even besides that I'm finding myself rooting for them, as a likely way for Cup to return to CAN, and because offensive powerhouses are the most fun. Go Edm.
Wait, how did they make nhl history? 3 players over 100 pts? Is that history? Regardless fun to watch these guys
I love how Brad Harrison embraces Nuge. Hes been with nuge since day one. Great to see
you mean "Mcdavid" the only reason oilers are where they are right now
Could be their year
Cool…
But Jagr, Lemieux and Francis all did it when you still had to keep your head up, and the NHL was changing the rules to LIMIT scoring instead of now changing the rules to protect stars and INCREASE scoring…
KEEP NUGE FOREVER
