However, only Anze Kopitar, Drew Doughty, Dustin Brown, and Quick remain from the championship teams of 2012 and 2014. Quick had a 23-13-9 record this season with a 2.59 goals against average and .910 save percentage. The jackpot is expected to grow over the five days with early bird prizes such as cash prizes, tickets and unique Oilers fan experiences. Edmontonians can expect an increased police presence around Rogers Place and the Ice District before, during and after games. The tailgate and Ford Hall are free of charge and both open two hours before puck drop. Ford Hall and the expanded Molson Hockey House will also be open for fans this playoff run. Kane said he has been waiting the majority of his life for this moment. “With the pandemic and not being able to go see Oilers games in person, the first goal I’m just going to lose my mind, let’s be honest,” Kane said. This clearly angered Oilers captain Connor McDavid who would skate through everyone en route to scoring a late 2-1 goal to put the Oilers behind by just one. Moore picked up an assist on the goal to give himself an early two-point night. The Oilers powerplay clicked for two goals to give them 50 per cent powerplay percentage on four man-advantages.

GDB +1.0 Wrap Up: A brutal mistake in the dying minutes gives ... (Oilers Nation)

Thanks, Mike. Final Score: 4-3 Kings. Wouldn't it be funny to know how many manhours were lost today in the time leading up to puck drop?

- Mike Smithwas back between the pipes and tasked with giving the Oilers a chance to open the series with a win, and in the early going, it was clear the team would need him because the Kings were shooting from everywhere. - Trevor Mooreopened the scoring (1-0) with a snipe from the slot after Iafallo found him with a pass he was able to tee off on. With the playoffs upon us, I dove into what’s working, what I’m excited about, and how Jay Woodcroft has turned this team around in a way I didn’t think was possible. - Can I just say how much I love it when Zach Hymangrabs the puck in the offensive zone and refuses to give it up? Even though I expected him to play tonight, the way the Oilers were playing mind games with us over the last couple of days had me second guessing myself. The pass may have hit a stick on its way from McDavid to Draisaitl but even that wasn’t enough to stop the magic. At the very least, the Oilers needed to get greasier in front of Quick because he was clearly in a zone where he was going to stop anything he could see. - In the dying moments of the first period, Connor McDavidgot his team on the board (2-1) with an end-to-end rush that saw him carve through the Kings’ defence before sniping a wrister past Quick down low. The problem, of course, is that Todd McLellan’s crew wasn’t about to just roll over and die after getting their teeth kicked in the second period, and the Oilers needed to be ready to handle the inevitable storm that was coming their way. To say that this was a dishearting loss would be an understatement, but the only thing you can do is shake it off and bounce back in game two. And just as we hoped, the Oilers hit the ice with all kinds of energy and that early jump resulted in a charcuterie board of shots on goal and power play chances that they would need to tie the game not once but twice. So when I heard Rogers Place ready to explode in the moments leading up to puck drop, I knew the wait was worth it and that the stage was set to make some memories.
