Mattias Ekholm scored at 1:04 of overtime as the Edmonton Oilers completed a two-goal comeback to defeat the visiting Boston Bruins 3-2 on Thursday night.

Ekholm snapped off the deciding goal as the trailer on the rush. He received a feed from Ryan Nugent-Hopkins, who picked the puck off Boston goaltender Jeremy Swayman's pads and dished a pass back.

The Oilers, who have won six of their last seven games, erased a 2-0 deficit with goals in the second and third periods.

Zach Hyman had a goal and an assist, scoring Edmonton's first before setting up Connor McDavid's tying tally with 2:21 left.

Leon Draisaitl had three assists and Stuart Skinner made 24 saves for the Oilers.

Draisaitl and McDavid have seven-game point streaks.

Boston had a 2-0 lead after one period, as Elias Lindholm scored 1:07 in and Mark Kastelic doubled the score with 2:25 left before intermission.

Swayman stopped 23 shots for the Bruins, who completed a 2-2-1 road trip against Western Conference teams.

Both teams had 26 shots on goal and went 0-for-2 on the power play.

Less than a minute after Swayman made a key stop on Draisaitl's one-timer from the right circle, McDavid took Hyman's drop feed and cut into the blue paint to stuff in the tying goal from in tight.

Edmonton's second-period push had made it a 2-1 game as a seeing-eye goal from Hyman beat Swayman at 11:17. After Kastelic attempted to bank the puck out of a scrum along the boards, it landed right with Hyman in the right circle, and he slipped a wrist shot five-hole.

Hyman, who has eight goals in his last seven games, played with a broken nose after a slap shot from teammate Evan Bouchard deflected and hit Hyman in the face on Monday against the Florida Panthers.

Lindholm scored on Boston's first shot at 1:07 of the first, curling out of the deep corner to the outside of the circle to put on a shot that snuck through Skinner, who was hugging the left post.

Brad Marchand dished the primary assist to Lindholm, giving him an eight-game point streak.

The visitors finished the first period with an 11-5 shot edge and a two-goal lead after Kastelic's hard net drive resulted in a backhand goal at 17:35. After Brandon Carlo's touch started transition, Kastelic picked up a loose puck in the neutral zone before making the rush for the goal.
