A final November 3 NHL result sourced directly from the league's game recap, not a live scoreboard.
New Jersey wins a dramatic game
The New Jersey Devils defeated the Edmonton Oilers 4–3 in a shootout at Prudential Center on Tuesday, November 3, 2026, according to the NHL's official game recap. Jack Hughes scored twice and assisted on another goal, while new Devils goaltender Connor Hellebuyck made 18 saves and secured the win. Arseny Gritsyuk scored the decisive shootout goal. The result ended Edmonton's strong road run without a regulation or shootout loss and marked a third consecutive victory for Hellebuyck with his new club.
Edmonton rallies from two down
Edmonton opened the scoring on a goal by Evan Bouchard, but Connor Brown tied the game before Hughes scored twice in a 45-second stretch in the second period. Ryan Nugent-Hopkins reduced the deficit to 3–2, and Leon Draisaitl tied the game early in the third with a power-play goal. Neither team won in overtime, sending the contest to a shootout. The shootout winner determines the final league result but is not added as a regular regulation goal in the official scoring summary.
McDavid and Nugent-Hopkins reach milestones
Connor McDavid assisted on Draisaitl's tying goal to extend his season-opening point and assist streak to 16 games, according to the NHL. Nugent-Hopkins played his 1,038th regular-season game, becoming Edmonton's franchise leader in games played. Both milestones are based on official league records and their observation date, not estimated future statistics.
What the result means
New Jersey improved to 10–5–0, while Edmonton moved to 11–2–3 after the shootout loss. The teams continue their regular-season schedules, with subsequent contests requiring separate reporting.
