EDMONTON Youth Sebastian Aho Jersey , Alberta (AP) — Connor McDavid and the Edmonton Oilers look awfully comfortable at home lately.McDavid had two goals and an assist, Leon Draisaitl added three assists and the resurgent Oilers beat the Philadelphia Flyers 4-1 on Friday night.Mikko Koskinen made 31 saves and is 7-0-0 on home ice this season. Edmonton has won six straight at Rogers Place to improve to 10-4-1 at home.“You always want to make your own rink a tough building to play in,” Draisaitl said. “We have struggled with that a little bit the seasons before that. We have been really good at home of late and hopefully we can keep that going.”Alex Chiasson and Adam Larsson also scored for the Oilers (18-12-3), who have won five of six overall and are 8-1-1 in their last 10 games. They moved to 9-2-2 under new coach Ken Hitchcock.Sean Couturier was initially credited with Philadelphia’s goal before it was given to Jakub Voracek after the game. The Flyers (12-14-4) have lost three in a row and six of eight.“We weren’t playing bad hockey, just a couple of mistakes here and there and it’s in the back of the net and you’re chasing again,” captain Claude Giroux said. “The third period we played great again, but we’re just chasing every game.”Edmonton got on the board with 7½ minutes remaining in the first period when Draisaitl fed the puck in front to Chiasson Authentic Teuvo Teravainen Jersey , who beat goalie Anthony Stolarz for his career-high 14th goal of the season in his 27th game. Chiasson’s previous best came in 2013-14 over 79 games with Dallas.The 28-year-old Montreal native won a Stanley Cup with Washington last season, but came to the Oilers on a training camp audition.“When you win a Cup, it is a little surprising he didn’t have a deal or nothing,” McDavid said. “He came in on a PTO and worked hard and earned a job and has been having a great year. I couldn’t be happier for him. He is a fun guy to play with. He has a knack for scoring and is finding a way to get open.”The Oilers added to their lead at exactly the same point in the middle period when McDavid banked a shot from behind the net off Stolarz’s rear end for his 18th.Just more than a minute later it was 3-0 when Larsson scored his first of the season on a shot from the top of the circle following a give-and-go with Ryan Spooner.The Flyers ended Koskinen’s shutout bid midway through the third on a shot by Voracek that initially appeared to carom off Couturier into the net.

(AP) — The goal is looking awfully big when Vladimir Tarasenko is shooting. Jordan Binnington is making it look awfully small when he’s in it.The combination has led the St. Louis Blues to their longest winning streak in 18 years.Binnington matched a franchise rookie record with his seventh straight victory, Tarasenko scored twice and the Blues stretched their winning streak to eight games with a 4-0 win over the Arizona Coyotes on Thursday night.“I’m excited about the direction this is headed Womens Victor Rask Jersey ,” Binnington said. “How disciplined we’re being, selfless.

St. Louis is 14-4-1 in 2019, including 9-2-1 on the road.Binnington made 21 saves to match Brent Johnson’s rookie franchise record winning streak set in 2000-01.
