EDMONTON -- Connor McDavid scored the only goal on his 28th birthday, and Stuart Skinner made 30 saves for the Edmonton Oilers in a 1-0 win against the Los Angeles Kings at Rogers Place on Monday. It was McDavid’s 72nd game-winning goal, tying Glenn Anderson for the most in franchise history.

The Edmonton Oilers came out slow but revved it up, tilting the ice in the second period and hanging on in the third to beat the Los Angeles Kings 1-0 on Monday night. In the end, the Grade A shots were 15 for the Oilers,
