that should be 4-2 victory
Hard fought 2-1 victory for the #LetsGoOilers. That was a very needed win. Better effort by the team but still need a few more things cleaned up. On to Colorado on Tuesday.
2:30 to go and Vegas pulls the goalie. #LetsGoOilers then get the puck out of the zone with McDavid making the play and he finds an open Kapanen who puts it in the empty net. #Oilers now lead 4-2
And on the PP the #LetsGoOilers give the puck away, Vegas comes down the ice. Both Drai and Bouch can't play the puck properly and Eichel picks the top corner on Ingram for a SHG. #Oilers now lead 3-2 with 3:15 to go
#LetsGoOilers digging for a loose puck and Theodore comes in and gets the stick up into Drai's face. No arm went up but the penalty was called and the #Oilers go to the PP with 4:45 to go
Wow, the #LetsGoOilers get a break as a broken stick stops Vegas from exiting their zone, McDavid picks up the lose puck, finds Drai and he goes backhand to score. #Oilers now lead 3-1
Looks like we are getting some 4v4 after the commercial break. Nurse and Howden both called for roughing with 9 minutes to go in the third #LetsGoOilers
They are although they are still giving it away to easily at times
It's about time hey?
Podkolzin with a big hit behind the Vegas net that was not received very well by the team or fans. #LetsGoOilers
Wow, in the last 2 minutes there was an obvious trip by a Vegas player in the #LetsGoOilers zone then Theodore is 2 feet from the center line and icing is not called. Also a puck hits a Vegas player jumping on the ice with the man he was replacing still on the ice and no too many men call.
Podkolzin is getting credit for the goal which would be his 15th of the season #LetsGoOilers
Podkolzin breaks out and splits the Vegas D and he makes the play, the puck lies near the line but Roslovic taps it home. It sure looked like Vegas was going to get a penalty on that play #LetsGoOilers lead 2-1
The #LetsGoOilers aren't going to win much with only 11 shots on goal through 2 periods especially against a goalie who has not been good
They should be having that in every period let along through 2
Podkolzin takes an interference hit in the Vegas zone but no call. Amazing how year after year the VGKs seem to get away with pretty mcuh everything #LetsGoOilers
Barbashev with a break but Ingram makes the save with his shoulder. #LetsGoOilers
Frederic sends McDavid in and he beats the 2 defenders and he is hooked. #LetsGoOilers to the PP for the first time this game with 6 minutes to go in the second
The #LetsGoOilers kill the penalty but right after the VGKs tie the game. Nurse tied up with a forward in front and the long shot finds the twine behind Ingram. Game tied at 1
JFC. Nurse unable to clear the zone on the PK with McDavid looking for the stretch pass but it turns into a Vegas chance. #LetsGoOilers
Ingram with another misplayed shot but it stays out. Then of course the #LetsGoOilers are called for a penalty and will go to the PK. Walman called for slashing with 9:15 to go in the second
That was actually a Bouchard shot
#LetsGoOilers with another shot off the Skinny Red Kid behind Hill. That makes 3 so far. Nuge with the deflection off a Nurse shot
#LetsGoOIlers are challenging for offside and it sure looked like it was. The stripes agree and the Ingram gaff is taken off the board. #Oilers still lead 1-0
And there is the #LetsGoOilers goaltending costing the team. Long shot that Ingram wiffs on and he deflects it into his own net. WOOF!!
The #LetsGoOilers with some pressure with 16:48 to go in the second. Winning some puck battles and Frederic with a chance that is saved but he roofs the rebound and the #Oilers lead 1-0
Walman looks injured after taking that hit in the corner #LetsGoOilers
Savoie has looked good tonight. #LetsGoOilers
Vegas is starting to push and the #LetsGoOilers are getting bottled up in the defensive zone
Hyman in with a good opportunity for a shot but he tries to pass it through a defender to Savioe and the puck ends up going the other way in a hurry #LetsGoOilers
