This is how history is written! Edmonton Oilers become the first NHL team with five players surpassing 1,000 points

The game against Pittsburgh was truly special for several Edmonton players.

Details: Edmonton’s confident 6-4 victory over the Pittsburgh Penguins not only netted the Oilers three points but also marked a historic achievement that no other NHL team has ever managed.

Thanks to a brace from McDavid and a goal from Draisaitl, Edmonton has become the first team in NHL history to have five players each surpass the 1,000-point milestone.

Here are the Oilers who have reached the 1,000-point mark:

• Wayne Gretzky: 1,669 (583+1,086).
• Connor McDavid: 1,138 (381+757).
• Jari Kurri: 1,043 (474+569).
• Mark Messier: 1,034 (392+642).
• Leon Draisaitl: 1,003 (416+587).

Currently, Edmonton sits sixth in the NHL’s Western Conference with 38 points. The Oilers’ next game will be against Boston on December 19.

Reminder: For the first time in Olympic hockey history, players will wear mandatory neck protection
