The Edmonton Oilers’ season ended Sunday night at Rogers Place with a 5-2 loss to the Vegas Golden Knights.

Vegas wins the best-of-seven 4-2. They’ll play either Dallas or Seattle in the Western Conference Final.

The Golden Knights took an early lead when the puck bounced in front to Reilly Smith, who snapped a shot past Stuart Skinner 24 seconds into the game.

Connor McDavid provided a quick response, 31 seconds later, when his shot from the right wing eluded Adin Hill.

Just 1:48 after that, Derek Ryan centered the puck to Warren Foegele, who connected for his second of the post-season.

Vegas came out strong in the second and went ahead on a pair of goals by Jonathan Marchessault in the first eight minutes of the period.

With the teams playing four-on-four late in the second, Marchessault completed the natural hat trick with a shot from the right side, making it 4-2 Golden Knights after two.

Jack Campbell replaced Skinner (13 saves) to start the third.
