Ryan Nugent-Hopkins and Troy Stecher scored 20 seconds apart in the second period as the Edmonton Oilers shut down the 2024 calendar year with a 4-1 victory over the visiting Utah Hockey Club on Tuesday night.
With the game tied at 1, Nugent-Hopkins notched the go-ahead goal at the 4:53 mark on an odd-man break before Stecher created a two-goal margin shortly thereafter.
