Video summary
Press to jump
- 0:22McDavid accelerates past the Rangers' defense and scores the opening goal.
- 4:54Bouchard fires home a power-play slapshot in the second period.
- 7:29Garand makes a sprawling pad save against Draisaitl and Ekholm.
- 8:38Tomkins produces consecutive close-range saves while Edmonton kills a penalty.
- 9:44Garand stops McDavid on a breakaway.
- 10:04The closing goal arrives with New York's net empty.
Connor McDavid needs less than a minute to get past New York's defense and score. The NHL's Oilers-Rangers highlights barely have time to settle in before Edmonton is celebrating, but the goaltenders give this reel plenty of reasons to keep watching.
Matt Tomkins makes consecutive point-blank stops on a third-period penalty kill. At the other end, Dylan Garand sprawls to deny Leon Draisaitl and Mattias Ekholm, then later stops a McDavid breakaway. Edmonton wins 4-1, with Colton Dach scoring twice and Evan Bouchard contributing a power-play slapshot.
That upload is the week's most watched and the channel's busiest video right now, reaching about 240,000 views. In the comments, viewers keep returning to Tomkins' work, McDavid's acceleration and Bouchard's shot. One spectator recalls seeing McDavid at full speed from inside Madison Square Garden.
Anaheim supplies another thread across the week's fifteen uploads: Cutter Gauthier's hat trick, six unanswered Ducks goals against Ottawa, and a crowd moving from boos to cheers. Both the comeback clip and the full game highlights are among the channel's busiest uploads. Away from the scoreboard, Calgary defenseman Joel Hanley opens packs with his son Hudson and finds his own hockey card.
The NHL added roughly 33 million views over the week, along with a growing subscriber audience. Daily viewing is also well above its usual level. Among fellow league channels, the NFL had a particularly substantial week, while MLB and NBA are currently drawing views more slowly than usual. For the NHL, the week's standout remains a game with room for both McDavid's speed and the saves that followed.
