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.

The Edmonton Oilers pulled off a stunning comeback, defeating the Vegas Golden Knights 4-2 in Game 1 of their second-round Stanley Cup Playoff series. Trailing 2-0 early, the Oilers took control of the game in the second period and allowed only four shots against in the final 40 minutes.
