Won in spite of refs, back to back game with McDavid being interfered half the time of his shifts. Also down multiple players. This is a team folks.

Probably as close to a perfect road period as you can get to close it out. I don't even know if the Wings got a scoring chance with their 4 shots. They forechecked hard, didn't sit back and gave the Detroit nothing.

I thought this was an automatic loss. They hold on to win in regulation. All things considered... I love it.

Biggest Win of the Year? Oilers win 2-1

Injuries... less than 24 hours rest on a long road trip... Daylight savings time... Back up goalie...

There was alot going against them, but they scraped through and did enough to win.

Reassuring to see Draisaitl look like the fastest guy on the ice in a back-to-back game.

Pouliot was really crapping the bed the last couple minutes there.

How the !???!?! are we 9-3-1? !?!??!?!?!?

Shoutout to my favourite 80's goaltender, Jonas Gustavsson. Guy was an absolute... uh... Frankenstein back there.

THe worst part of watching the games now is getting frustrated about how much McDavid has to deal with

Win in the afternoon on the road on a back to back with the backup goalie starting and some injury issues.

Safe to say I'm pretty happy with today's result.
