Adam Henrique scored two goals and Connor McDavid scored on a power play midway through the second period as the Edmonton Oilers won their fourth straight game, 4-0 over the Boston Bruins.

For Edmonton Oilers centre Adam Henrique, the post-Christmas visit to Los Angeles was a professional step into an elevator shaft. In weekend games against the Kings and Ducks, Henrique went 0-3 goals five-on-five, via Natural Stat Trick , and looked especially slow in the Saturday game.

The schedule for the Boston Bruins did not get easier, as they welcomed the Edmonton Oilers to town. Aiming to right the ship, the Oilers did not allow that and took a convincing victory by the score of 4-0.

With the likes of Connor McDavid, Leon Draisaitl, and Ryan Nugent-Hopkins, the Edmonton Oilers have possessed plenty of top-six centre talent for nearly a full decade now.

The Edmonton Oilers won their fourth straight game, shutting out the Boston Bruins by a score of 4-0 at TD Garden on Tuesday (Jan. 7). Adam Henrique scored twice for the Oilers, who also got goals from fellow forwards Viktor Arvidsson and Connor McDavid.

Connor McDavid and Viktor Arvidsson also scored for the Oilers (25-12-3), who have won four straight and seven of nine (7-1-1). Brett Kulak had two assists, and Leon Draisaitl had his 14-game point streak (12 goals, 15 assists) come to an end.

The Oilers depth chart at centre is exceptional, beyond any other team at any other position. Connor McDavid and Leon Draisaitl are elite offensive players of the highest order, and this season Draisaitl’s 200-foot game overwhelms opponents.

The Edmonton Oilers walked into TD Garden on Tuesday night and shut out the Boston Bruins 4-0. The Oilers won their fourth in a row on the strength of Stuart Skinner’s 26 saves.

A long-term injury to Skinner would be disastrous. Calvin Pickard is a capable backup, but he's not cut out to be a starter for a Stanley Cup contender. Thankfully, Skinner returned for the start of the second period, and Oilers fans could exhale.
