In the game of the night, Edmonton stunned the Kings 2-1 in overtime. The game featured an apparent tying goal wiped out with 1:05 left that angered the Oilers and their fans who littered the ice with debris. It was definitely a bad call.

However, it all turned out okay thanks to rookie Nail Yakupov. The 2012 first overall pick tied it with 4.7 seconds left in regulation. It seemed impossible. First, they won the draw against one of the league’s best Jarrett Stoll. Then off a scramble, Taylor Hall’s desperation turnaround shot caromed off Jon Quick right to Yakupov, who batted the puck out of mid-air for his second NHL goal- touching off a wild goal celebration that’ll be replayed over and over.

The Russian teenager emulated Theo Fleury by sliding across the ice in similar fashion to what Fleury did with the rival Flames in ’91 after beating the Oilers in a series. It prompted this tweet from Theo:

Definitely one of coolest celebrations. The video will go viral. It’s awesome to see that kind of youthful enthusiasm from Yakupov, who delivered a clutch goal against one of the top netminders.

To top it off, Sam Gagner won it in OT on a four-on-three power play when he steered home Ryan Nugent-Hopkins feed to give Edmonton an exciting comeback win on home ice. Rexall went bananas. Rookie defenseman Justin Schultz had two assists. Yakupov will score many more goals. This one will be remembered.
