The Kings and Oilers are set to lock horns once again at Crypto.com Arena on Tuesday for a pivotal Game 5 in their first-round NHL playoff showdown.

After a tense back-and-forth battle, Draisaitl finally cracked the code on Darcy Kuemper late in the extra frame, with Kings defenseman Vladislav Gavrikov cooling his heels in the penalty box for tripping Connor McDavid.
