EDMONTON, Alberta (AP) — Teuvo Teravainen had two goals and two assists and Connor Bedard had a goal and two assists as the Chicago Blackhawks beat the Edmonton Oilers 5-2 on Saturday night.

Seth Jones also had a goal and two assists in his 800th career NHL game and Philipp Kurashev scored the other goal to help the Blackhawks improved to 1-1-1 on the season. Petr Mrazek stopped 35 shots.

Corey Perry and Leon Draisaitl scored for the Oilers, who fell to 0-2 to start the season after reaching Game 7 of the Stanley Cup Final last season before losing out to the Florida Panthers. Edmonton has been outscored 11-2 in its first two games.

Calvin Pickard finished with 15 saves for the Oilers.

There were four former first overall picks playing in the game in Hall and Bedard for the Blackhawks and Connor McDavid and Ryan Nugent-Hopkins for Edmonton.

Oilers: Oilers defenseman Brett Kulak played in his 500th career NHL game. The 30-year-old has been a mainstay since arriving from Montreal at the 2022 NHL trade deadline, playing in all 184 regular season and 53 playoff games that he could.

Key moment
