Oilers beat Canucks 5-1 to force deciding Game 7 in second-round series

The Edmonton Oilers weren't ready to have their season end. Evan Bouchard and Ryan Nugent-Hopkins each had a goal and two assists, Connor McDavid added three assists and the Oilers beat the Canucks 5-1 on Saturday night to avoid elimination and force a deciding Game 7. “The boys were ready from the start, we obviously knew what was at stake tonight,” Edmonton forward Dylan Holloway said.
