Leon Draisaitl scored four goals, three in the third period, and one assist while his gunman Connor McDavid scored one and scored four assists.

It was Draisaitl's second hattrick in the NHL and he now tops the NHL's scoring with 107 points (43 goals and 64 assists) ahead of McDavid who has 94 (32 goals and 62 assists).

- I'm not going to hum. If you score four goals it feels good. You feel good and you appreciate your teammates. They obviously made some nice efforts that made it easier for me, says Draisaitl according to NHL.com.

That Nashville's Swedish Calle Järnkrok scored a goal for the home team played less role - and the tone was not as cheerful as for Edmonton after the game.

- We got what we deserved, says Nashville coach John Hayes.

Edmonton is now two points behind Vegas topping the Pacific division, which is part of the Western Conference.
