EDMONTON — Connor McDavid scored a goal and added an assist to reach and surpass the 1,000-point mark for his career as the Edmonton Oilers won 3-2 in overtime against the Nashville Predators at Rogers Place on Thursday.

McDavid sent a no-look, backhand pass to Darnell Nurse for the one-timer past Scott Wedgewood’s glove from the top of the right circle at 2:33 of overtime.

Point 1,000 came at 2:44 of the second period, with the Predators caught on a line change and McDavid in on a 2-on-1, taking a cross-crease pass from Leon Draisaitl and snapping a one-timer low glove side on Wedgewood to tie the game 1-1.

McDavid has 1,001 points (341 goals, 660 assists) in 659 games, making him the fourth fastest player in NHL history to achieve the milestone, behind Wayne Gretzky (424 games), Mario Lemieux (513) and Mike Bossy (656).

Nurse had two goals and an assist for the Oilers (9-7-1), who won their third game in a row — the last two in overtime. Calvin Pickard made 21 saves.

Michael McCarron and Cole Smith scored for the Predators (5-9-3), who have lost five of their last six (1-3-2). Wedgewood made 31 saves.

McCarron put Nashville ahead 1-0 at 8:22 of the first period, redirecting a shot from the point by Roman Josi past the glove of Pickard.

After McDavid’s historic goal, Nurse put Edmonton ahead 2-1 at 5:30 of the second period with a shot from the bottom of the left circle, which he buried top shelf, over the right shoulder of Wedgewood.

Smith was sent in on a breakaway by Zachary L’Heureux, going five-hole on Pickard to tie it 2-2 at 17:12 of the third period to force overtime.
