With the Kings looking to take a 3-0 lead in the playoff series, the Oilers seized the momentum with four unanswered goals at raucous Rogers Place.

A forgettable third period for the Kings led to a Game 3 loss and helped breathe life into the Oilers, who will try to even the series Sunday at home.

In last year’s playoffs (25 games), the McDavid line combined with the Bouchard pairing outscored opponents 23-8 (74 percent) at five-on-five in 347 minutes. That kind of high-octane performance (3.98 GF-60 for the line) turned a five-on-five shift into a power play.
