In a decisive victory, the Edmonton Oilers defeated the Carolina Hurricanes 3-1, breaking a five-game losing streak. Adam Henrique kicked things off with a short-handed goal, followed by Corey Perry's strike from Leon Draisaitl's setup. Connor McDavid sealed the deal with an empty-netter. Calvin Pickard stood tall, stopping 35 shots, while Frederik Andersen made 28 saves for the Hurricanes, who struggled to capitalize on three power-play opportunities and are now 3 for 25 in their last ten games.

This win marked a significant moment for the Oilers, ending their road losing streak and providing crucial momentum as they look ahead to their next game against Anaheim. Sebastian Aho managed to score for Carolina, but the team's recent slump continues as they have lost six of their last eight games. Draisaitl’s points streak reached 11 games, showcasing his importance to the team's offense despite his goal streak ending.

The Edmonton Oilers faced a tough challenge against the Colorado Avalanche, ultimately falling 5-4 in a game marred by self-inflicted errors. After trailing 3-2 at the end of the first period, coach Kris Knoblauch made a bold move, replacing goalie Stuart Skinner with Calvin Pickard to start the second period. Skinner's struggles continued, finishing with only nine saves on twelve shots and a dismal .750 save percentage. This season, Skinner has particularly struggled in the first period, sporting an .879 save percentage.

Despite the loss, Leon Draisaitl and Corey Perry each delivered impressive two-goal outings, but their efforts weren’t enough to overcome the team’s defensive lapses. The Oilers recorded three giveaways, with at least two leading directly to goals for the Avalanche. As they gear up for the 4 Nations Faceoff, the Oilers hope to rectify their earlier mistakes and regain form as they prepare for a tougher stretch ahead.

Nathan MacKinnon powered the Colorado Avalanche to a thrilling 5-4 victory over the Edmonton Oilers, contributing a goal and three assists. Cale Makar added two goals and an assist, showcasing his offensive prowess as the NHL's top defenseman. Artturi Lehkonen and Martin Necas found the net as well for Colorado, who have now won four of their last five games. On the other side, Leon Draisaitl and Corey Perry each scored twice for the Oilers, but their two-game winning streak came to an end. Mackenzie Blackwood stopped 23 shots to secure the win, while Calvin Pickard made 17 saves after coming in for Stuart Skinner, who struggled initially.

The first period was particularly explosive, with four goals scored within a mere 2 minutes and 34 seconds. Makar leads all defensemen in both goals and points this season, while Draisaitl's league-leading 40th goal marks his sixth season with at least 40 goals, joining an elite group in NHL history. Both teams will return to action on February 22, facing different opponents post the 4 Nations Face-Off break.

Nathan MacKinnon shone for the Colorado Avalanche with a goal and three assists, while Cale Makar contributed with two goals and an assist in a thrilling 5-4 victory over the Edmonton Oilers. The result marked a successful outing for the Avalanche, who have now claimed four wins in their last five games, improving their overall record to 33-22-2.

Corey Perry and Leon Draisaitl each scored twice for the Oilers, who saw their two-game winning streak come to an end. Mackenzie Blackwood made crucial saves in goal for Colorado, ensuring the team held onto their slim lead as they prepare for the 4 Nations Face-Off break.

The Toronto Maple Leafs secured a narrow 4-3 victory over the Edmonton Oilers in a thrilling encounter. The Leafs surged to a commanding 3-0 lead in the first period with goals from Matthew Knies, William Nylander, and Bobby McMann. Mitch Marner extended the lead to 4-1 early in the third period. However, the Oilers mounted a fierce comeback, almost equalizing after a goal from Leon Draisaitl was disallowed due to an offside challenge. Toronto's goaltender Joseph Woll made key saves, totaling 45, to help preserve the lead as the Oilers pressed hard in the closing stages of the game.

Despite the victory, Leafs coach Craig Berube expressed frustration over the team's late-game play, suggesting they could have been more aggressive with their lead. The win snapped a three-game losing streak for Toronto, with notable performances from forwards returning from injury, while defenseman Oliver Ekman-Larsson did not finish the game due to injury. Marner set a record by becoming the fastest Leaf to reach 70 points in a season since the early 1990s, further highlighting the team's offensive prowess.
