Ryan Nugent-Hopkins is having a time in Hollywood.
The Edmonton Oilers forward scored twice Tuesday against the Kings, and his second marker was rather pretty. No. 93 split two Los Angeles defenders on his way to the net, before making Jonathan Quick look silly by finishing on his backhand.
Nugent-Hopkins has 18 tallies on the season and will be hoping to become the fifth Oiler to hit the 20-goal mark after Milan Lucic joined the club Tuesday.
The Kings, however, came out on top, erasing a 2-0 deficit to win 6-4.
