Oilers Top Flyers 2-1 on Roslovic's OT Goal

Philadelphia, PA - Jack Roslovic scored in overtime for the second straight game, giving the Edmonton Oilers a 2-1 victory over the Philadelphia Flyers on Wednesday night at the Wells Fargo Center.

The Oilers, embarking on a seven-game road trip, improved to 8-6-4 and moved into second place in the Pacific Division. Half of their wins this season have come in extra time. The Flyers, who fell to 8-5-2, remained fourth in the Metropolitan Division despite a strong third-period push.

Edmonton struck first late in the opening period. Connor McDavid's shot was stopped by Flyers goaltender Daniel Vladar, but Matthew Savoie retrieved the rebound and passed back to McDavid at the point. McDavid then fed Evan Bouchard, who one-timed a shot past Vladar for a 1-0 lead at 17:32. Bouchard finished with a goal and an assist, while Savoie earned the secondary helper.

Philadelphia evened the score in the second period during a power play. With Stuart Skinner screened in the Edmonton net, Matvei Michkov wristed a shot from the top of the circle at 15:05, tying the game 1-1. It was Michkov's second goal in as many games after a nine-game drought.
