EDMONTON, Alberta — Wayne Gretzky, Paul Coffey and ... Sam Gagner?

The Edmonton Oilers forward matched a franchise record held by two of the NHL’s all-time greats Thursday night when he had eight points in an 8-4 victory over the Chicago Blackhawks.

Gagner, who entered with five goals all season, broke loose for four goals and four assists — the first eight-point game in the NHL since Pittsburgh star Mario Lemieux did it on Dec. 31, 1988, against New Jersey.

Gagner fell two points shy of tying the league mark, set by Toronto’s Darryl Sittler on Feb. 7, 1976.
