Frustrated Kings have no answer for high-scoring Oilers in Game 3 blowout loss

Zach Hyman, Leon Draisaitl and Connor McDavid were three of the most dangerous scorers during the NHL regular season, combining for 127 goals and 315 points for the Edmonton Oilers. Stopping one of them is a challenge, stopping all three is pretty much impossible.

The Kings certainly haven’t found a way to do it, with Hyman, Draisaitl and McDavid combining for five goals and three assists Friday in a 6-1 Oilers win that gave Edmonton a 2-1 lead in the best-of-seven first-round playoff series the trio have dominated.

The loss was just the fifth in the Kings’ last 19 games at Crypto.
