The Edmonton Oilers beat the Los Angeles Kings 4-1 at Crypto.com Arena on 13 October 2026. Connor McDavid marked his 800th NHL appearance with a goal and three assists, while Vasily Podkolzin scored twice and Leon Draisaitl supplied a goal and an assist.

Edmonton built a 3-0 first-period lead. Draisaitl opened the scoring at 7:16, Podkolzin added a power-play goal a minute later and McDavid scored at 15:48. Those three goals established an advantage Los Angeles could not erase despite its shot volume.

Devon Levi made a career-high 39 saves. Brandt Clarke got the Kings on the board late in the second period, but Podkolzin's empty-net goal at 17:42 of the third restored the three-goal margin. McDavid and Draisaitl assisted on that closing goal.

The result kept Edmonton without a regulation defeat through six games and left Los Angeles without a win through five. The official final recap establishes the result and milestone, with independent corroboration from Field Level Media. The match day remains 13 October, separate from this report's actual publication date.
