Kailer Yamamoto scored with 3:02 remaining for his first point of the series as the Oilers beat the  Los Angeles Kings  5-4 in Game 6 to advance to the second round of the Stanley Cup playoffs. In a series dominated by superstars Connor McDavid and Leon Draisaitl, it was the Oilers' fourth line that played a pivotal role. Besides Yamamoto, Klim Kostin had two goals and an assist. It didn’t go in the net early in the series but he stuck with it. He stuck with it and eventually ended up scoring the series winner,” Oilers coach Jay Woodcroft said.
