Vegas had four straight comeback wins in 2023, the year it won the Stanley Cup. It was a testament to its championship mettle. And in the second round that postseason, the Golden Knights defeated these Oilers, rallying to win the final two games after the series was tied 2-2.

Zach Hyman’s late goal caps off Edmonton’s historic rally, giving the Oilers a 1-0 series lead over the Golden Knights in dramatic fashion.

The Edmonton Oilers winning the first game of a playoff series was rare. Coming from behind to do it was not. Edmonton's 4-2 victory at T-Mobile Arena on Tuesday to kick off a second-round series against the Vegas Golden Knights was just the third time in six straight years of reaching the playoffs that the Oilers won a series opener.
