He gathered the puck off a dump-in, changed direction behind the net and slid a shot under Pickard from a sharp angle beyond the right post.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt just seems like right now it\u2019s that wall is 100 feet high,\u201d Pearson said. \u201cWe\u2019ve got to knock it down with an ax or something. We\u2019ve got to get there. \u2026 I think you\u2019re just searching for that one, right? It\u2019s not easy. Everyone is trying to do the same thing in this league. Everyone is trying to win.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.nhl.com\/player\/josh-morrissey-8477504\" title=\"Josh Morrissey\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Josh Morrissey<\/a> then made it 3-1 at 18:56 when his shot from the left circle trickled in with bodies in front.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThey came out hard. They\u2019re a desperate team,\u201d Bouchard said. \u201cWe started getting it together later in the game. Big fight for [<a href=\"https:\/\/www.nhl.com\/player\/trent-frederic-8479365\" title=\"Trent Frederic\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Trent Frederic<\/a>] to get us going (late in the second). I think that really rallied us together.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>After McDavid pulled Edmonton within one goal, Hyman tied it 3-3 at 8:19 of the third. He put a wrist shot over Hellebuyck\u2019s glove from the right circle after <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nhl.com\/player\/darnell-nurse-8477498\" title=\"Darnell Nurse\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Darnell Nurse<\/a> fed him from the blue line following a Winnipeg turnover its own zone.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cHe&#8217;s a big goalie,\u201d Hyman said. \u201cI\u2019ve tried to go cross side on him. On the back end, that\u2019s kind of the usual move I make, but thought that I had some time to go short side and obviously I was able to beat him, which was a big goal for us.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Bouchard gave the Oilers a 4-3 lead on the power play at 10:37, scoring on the rush with a wrist shot from the high slot after he blocked a backhand attempt by <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nhl.com\/player\/adam-lowry-8476392\" title=\"Adam Lowry\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Adam Lowry<\/a> at the other end.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cTiming is everything,\u201d Bouchard said of Edmonton\u2019s late power play. \u201cIt\u2019s the momentum in the game. It\u2019s a big swing in the game when you get a chance like that. Definitely in the third period, near the end of the third period, it\u2019s one that you\u2019ve got to capitalize on. I think that\u2019s when we\u2019re really at our best.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Podkolzin tied it 1-1 at 17:02.
