Edmonton Oilers Trio Gets Named Engrained in NHL History
Ryan Nugent-Hopkins of the Edmonton Oilers made history on Tuesday night by becoming the third player on the team to reach 100 points this season. With his point in the game against the Vancouver Canucks, he joins his teammates Connor McDavid and Leon Draisaitl in the 100-point club. This marks the first time since 1996 that a trio of teammates have each reached 100 points in a single season.
The Oilers have been relying heavily on the production of their star players this season, and the trio of McDavid, Draisaitl, and Nugent-Hopkins have delivered. With their impressive performances, the team has secured a playoff spot in the North Division and will be looking to make a deep run in the postseason. The accomplishment of three players reaching 100 points in a single season is a testament to the talent and skill of the Oilers' top line.
