BY THE NUMBERS: Edmonton Oilers' 4-3 win over the Kings in Game 5 Here is a glance at some of the numbers coming out of Game 5 between the Edmonton Oilers and Los Angeles Kings.
MAY 2 • EDMONTONJOURNAL.COM
Matt Roy - Two assists in loss Roy notched a pair of helpers in a 4-3 defeat to Edmonton in Game 5 on Wednesday.
Impact Roy was able to bring a six-game pointless streak to a close with his two helpers but it wasn't enough to stave off elimination for Los Angeles. Unless the Kings can come to an agreement soon, the blueliner is set to be an unrestricted free agent July 1. Roy should have plenty of offers if he goes to the open market after reaching the 20-point mark for the third consecutive campaign.
MAY 2 • ROTOWIRE
Vladislav Gavrikov - Snags helper in Game 5 Gavriokov picked up an assist in a 4-3 loss to Edmonton in Game 5 on Wednesday.
Impact Gavrikov ended the 2023-24 campaign stuck in a 17-game goal drought during which he put just 19 shots on net. During that stretch, the Russia blueliner did chip in five assists, including two in postseason action. Despite the slow end to the year, Gavrikov still managed to get back over the 20-point threshold after missing that mark last season.
MAY 2 • ROTOWIRE
Andreas Englund - Delivers helpers in loss Englund recorded an assist in Game 5's 4-3 defeat to Edmonton.
Impact Englund registered his first points since March 15 versus the Blackhawks, a stretch of 20 games without writing his name on the scoresheet. In 82 games this year, the 28-year-old blueliner managed one goal and nine helpers, reaching the 10-point threshold for the first time in his NHL career. Fantasy players probably shouldn't;t be expecting much more out of Englund heading into the 2024-25 campaign.
MAY 2 • ROTOWIRE
Adrian Kempe - Scores in Game 5 Kempe scored a goal on a team-high three shots in Wednesday's 4-3 loss to Edmonton.
Impact Kempe cut the Kings' deficit to one goal 17:42 into the third period, deflecting a Matt Roy shot past Stuart Skinner, though Los Angeles would ultimately come up short as Edmonton took the series in five games. Still, it was a strong effort from Kempe, who tallied four goals and five points in the series. He posted a career-high 75 points (28 goals, 47 assists) in 77 regular-season contests.
MAY 2 • ROTOWIRE
David Rittich - Falls to Edmonton Rittich allowed four goals on 26 shots in Wednesday's 4-3 loss to the Oilers.
Impact Rittich and the Kings couldn't overcome Edmonton's three-goal second period in the series-deciding loss. The 31-year-old Rittich started the series' final two games, going 0-2-0 with an .872 save percentage, after Cam Talbot struggled in the first three games. Rittich was solid in the regular season, going 13-6-3 with a .921 save percentage. As a pending free agent, Rittich could seek out a starting role prior to the 2024-25 campaign.

David Rittich - Set to start Wednesday Rittich is slated to start on the road against Edmonton in Game 5 on Wednesday, Jason Gregor of Sports 1440 Edmonton reports.
Impact Rittich is getting his second straight start after saving 12 of 13 shots in a 1-0 loss to Edmonton in Game 4 on Sunday. Edmonton has a potent offense, which ranked fourth in the 2023-24 campaign with 3.56 goals per game, so the Oilers will probably fire considerably more shots in the upcoming tilt. Rittich had a 13-6-3 record, 2.15 GAA and .921 save percentage in 24 regular-season contests.
