McDavid’s hat trick leads Oilers over Avalanche, 4-2
DENVER — Late in the second period, with his team outplaying Colorado, Edmonton coach Todd McLellan couldn’t believe his Oilers were trailing 2-1.
“Jay Woodcroft and I looked at each other and said, ‘How are we losing this game?’” McLellan said.
They didn’t, thanks to another big game by Connor McDavid.
McDavid had his third hat trick of the season and fourth of his career, and the Oilers beat the Avalanche 4-2 on Sunday to snap a six-game losing streak.
