Zach Hyman - Two-point game in high-scoring win Hyman scored a goal on six shots, added an assist and went plus-3 in Saturday's 6-5 overtime win over the Capitals.

Impact Hyman's 20th goal of the season was clutch, tying the game at 5-5 with 32 seconds left in the third period. The winger has seven goals and three assists over his last eight outings. For the season, Hyman has accumulated 33 points (11 on the power play), 109 shots on net, 34 hits and a plus-10 rating through 34 appearances.

Connor McDavid - Erupts for five points McDavid scored twice on nine shots, added three assists and went plus-5 in Saturday's 6-5 overtime win over the Capitals.

Impact McDavid factored on the last two goals of Evan Bouchard's hat trick, then scored a power-play tally and assisted on a Zach Hyman equalizer as the teams traded goals in the third period. McDavid got loose on a breakaway in overtime and took the win for the Oilers with his second tally. Prior to Saturday, he had gone seven games without scoring, though he had seven assists in that span. McDavid is the first player to reach the 90-point mark this season, doing so with 32 goals and 58 helpers over 53 appearances. He's added 38 power-play points, 200 shots on net and a plus-10 rating. Games like this aren't quite routine for McDavid, but he can pull one out of his hat every once in a while.

Evan Bouchard - Three of each in overtime win Bouchard scored three goals on eight shots, added three assists, went plus-5 and blocked two shots in Saturday's 6-5 overtime win over the Capitals.

Impact This was just the 24th performance of at least six points by a defenseman in NHL history, and the fourth time an Oilers blueliner has reached that mark. Paul Coffey did it twice and Kevin Lowe did it once. It was easily the best game of Bouchard's 400 career regular-season outings. He's racked up seven goals and 11 assists over 12 contests in January, and he's up to 14 goals, 55 points, 142 shots on net, 73 blocked shots and a plus-9 rating through 53 appearances. Bouchard's defense sometimes gives the Edmonton faithful fits, but games like Saturday are a great reminder why it's easier to root for him in fantasy.

Tristan Jarry - Notches win in overtime Jarry stopped 13 of 15 shots in relief of Connor Ingram in Saturday's 6-5 overtime win over the Capitals.

Impact Jarry came into the game with the Oilers trailing 3-2, and there was plenty more offense to be had on both sides. While Jarry's performance wasn't all that great, he kept things close and benefited from Connor McDavid's winning tally 47 seconds into the extra session. Jarry is 2-2-1 with 14 goals allowed on 113 shots since he returned from a lower-body injury, so he hasn't exactly been providing stability in the crease. The Oilers host the Ducks on Monday, and it's unclear which of the team's three goalies will get the nod for that one.

Connor Ingram - Pulled from Saturday's start Ingram stopped nine of 12 shots in Saturday's 6-5 overtime win over the Capitals.

Impact Ingram was pulled during the second period as the Capitals took their first lead on an Anthony Beauvillier goal at 14:29. The 28-year-old Ingram was spared the loss since the Oilers bounced back to win. He's had few missteps between the pipes, jumping over Calvin Pickard into the No. 2 role. Ingram is at a 5-3-1 record with a 2.40 GAA and a .909 save percentage, but the Oilers may not want to carry three goalies for the rest of the campaign. Ingram would need waivers to get to AHL Bakersfield, as would Pickard, so neither goalie can afford to have too many bad outings in a row while competing for starts behind Tristan Jarry, who collected the win in relief Saturday. The Oilers host the Ducks on Monday.
