Boston Bruins legend Bobby Orr holds the record for most consecutive games three-point games in NHL history. In the 1970-71 season, Orr went six straight games with three points, and Wayne Gretzky would tie his record in 1985-86.
In the Edmonton Oilers' game five and series win, Leon Draisaitl recorded his fifth consecutive three-point game of the 2022 Stanley Cup Playoffs. The German improved on his NHL record for the longest such run in the postseason, which he set in game four.
Draisaitl is just one game shy of the longest three-plus point streak in NHL history (regular season or playoffs) previously achieved by Jari Kurri (6 GP in 1992-93), Wayne Gretzky (6 GP in 1985-86) and Bobby Orr (6 GP in 1970-71). All of them did so in the regular season.
