They say a two-goal lead is the worst lead in hockey. The Oilers would have to agree.
Evander Kane, Maxim Letunov, Stefan Noesen and Kevin Labanc also scored for the Sharks who have won two in a row.
The Oilers made it 2-0 just 76 seconds later as McDavid turned on the jets to dance around a defender and chip in his 30th of the season past Sharks goalie Aaron Dell. It is McDavid’s fourth consecutive 30-goal campaign. San Jose surged into the lead seven minutes into the second period as Letunov won a battle in front to hook a rebound into the net for his first career NHL goal.
