Connor Ingram<\/a> celebrated his 29th birthday Tuesday by making 27 saves for his second shutout of the season as the Edmonton Oilers<\/a> extended their winning streak to four games by beating the Seattle Kraken 3-0.<\/p>\n

Max Jones, Kasperi Kapanen and Connor McDavid scored for the Oilers (38-28-9), who have won six of their last eight and became the second-last team in the NHL to put together a four-game winning streak, with only Philadelphia unable to have a stretch that long this season.<\/p>\n

Edmonton moved two points back of Pacific Division-leading Anaheim and three points up on third-place Vegas. The Oilers are now 28-5-5 when scoring first this season.<\/p>\n

The Kraken (32-30-11) have lost six of their last seven and remain two points out of a wild-card playoff position.<\/p>\n

Philipp Grubauer made 21 stops for Seattle.<\/p>\n

Kraken: Bobby McMann, who leads Seattle in goals and points since coming over in a deadline trade with Toronto \u2014 seven goals, four assists in eight games \u2014 had his goal-scoring streak stopped at three games. He had a chance to match the second-longest goal streak in franchise history.<\/p>\n

Oilers: McDavid extended his goal streak to five games. He leads the NHL in goals since Dec. 1 with 32. The Oilers captain in now one point back of Dale Hawerchuk for the third-most points by a player before age 30. Wayne Gretzky and Mario Lemieux are first and second on that lofty list.<\/p>\n

Edmonton started the scoring 5:28 into the opening period as a Jake Walman point shot hit Jones and then went off of Grubauer\u2019s glove and in for his third of the season. Jones was playing in his 300th career NHL game.<\/p>\n

Edmonton has been a regular pest for Seattle, as no team has recorded more victories over the Kraken than the Oilers. Edmonton came into the contest with a 14-4-0 record all-time against Seattle including going 7-1-0 at home and had outscored them 76-50.<\/p>\n

Kraken: Host the Utah Mammoth on Thursday.<\/p>\n

Oilers: Host the Chicago Blackhawks on Thursday.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Connor Ingram celebrated his 29th birthday Tuesday by making 27 saves for his second shutout of the season…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":534418,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":"","_share_on_mastodon":"0"},"categories":[5130],"tags":[5,4188,4,2686,234,5318],"class_list":{"0":"post-534810","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-seattle-kraken","8":"tag-hockey","9":"tag-kraken","10":"tag-nhl","11":"tag-seattle","12":"tag-seattle-kraken","13":"tag-seattlekraken"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/channels.im\/@nhl\/116329914381262966","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nhl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/534810","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nhl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nhl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nhl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nhl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=534810"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nhl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/534810\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nhl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/534418"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nhl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=534810"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nhl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=534810"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nhl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=534810"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
