These three were around the action all night, and Foegele had his best game of the preseason so far. The Oilers’ third line was arguably their strongest of the night. The second scrap came with under four minutes to go when both players dropped the gloves right off a faceoff. Nurse stepped up at the Oilers blue line laying a huge hit on Dube, and McLain came over and the two fought. With him on the ice at 5×5, Edmonton controlled 54.55 percent of the shot attempts, 51.89 percent of the expected goal share and 50 percent of the scoring chances. With him on the ice at 5×5, the Oilers controlled 74.19 percent of the shot attempts, 73.11 percent of the expected goal share and 75 percent of the scoring chances. The first came at the 6:38 mark of the third period. Goals were 1-1 with him on the ice.

He was our best player and we’re going to need that from time to time, especially on the road.” He's going to be a guy that's going to be a lot of fun to watch here for a long time.” … Throughout Saturday’s game, the Jets posted video tributes to Dale Hawerchuk from former teammates and friends. “Obviously, it’s the first (65)-minute game I got to play. “The guys in front of him worked our butts off, but he definitely stole us the win here.

The Oilers came back on a two-man advantage. The Jets replied on a two-man advantage a couple of minutes later when Cole Perfetti jammed in the puck from the side of the net. “They had the bulk of the play in that period, but we hung in — found a way to score the first goal of the game.

The Oilers came back from a 2-1 deficit to defeat the Jets in the shootout on Saturday night.

They had the bulk of the play in that period, but we hung in and found a way to score the first goal of the game. As the game wore on, we got more and more competitive and foudn a way to win a road game in a tough building versus a tough lineup tonight. I'm really happy we found a way to get the win tonight." "I thought we hung in there the first period. With the game knotted at one in the third period and Winnipeg on the powerplay, the Jets looked to have taken the lead when Dubois capped off a quick feed from Cole Perfetti. After the Jets took a pair of penalties by Dylan Samberg and Pierre-Luc Dubois, the Oilers capitalized on the two man advantage courtesy of a beautiful cross-ice feed by Dylan Holloway, setting up the Demers slap-shot goal. When the ice gets bad you don't want to do to much with it and I saw low blocker." "We're always trying to find the puck here and there. Skinner is currently sporting a .942 save percentage through parts of three games during the Oilers preseason, turning aside 33 of 35 shots. The 24-year-old played 29 games with in the NHL last year, recording a goal and an assist.

“I’m happy with how camp has gone, I’ve felt good out there on the ice,” he said. He whipped a wrist shot into the far top corner behind Jets goalie Connor Hellebuyck. There was plenty to digest in this one as the Oilers fought hard and had big nights on many fronts. He’s an unbelievable goalie and somebody I’ve looked up to for years.” “It feels good.” “He was our best player.”

Oilers goalie Jack Campbell, who stopped 7-of-8 shots in his Edmonton debut, said he was with the fans in holding his breath. “Your heart stops for sure,” ...

So the dates that you need to block off for this trip are January 12th to 15th. Filip Engaras (F) will also report to the Condors after he was released from an amateur tryout. Gone are the days when we had spots on the roster for projects with upside, we need players that can contribute now, and that likely means the end of the road for some guys that expected to have a job this year. Now that we’ve officially reached the midway point of the pre-season, I’m hoping the pace of news (and the games for that matter) will start to pick up a little bit as we draw nearer to the starting line. With limited spots available, Jay Woodcroft and his staff will need to make some interesting decisions over the next week or so, and that doesn’t leave a whole lot of room for mediocrity. For basically anyone outside of the top nine, time is running out in a real hurry for anyone that’s hoping to make enough of an impact to land themselves a gig.

Edmonton looks to get a few more reps in as world's longest batting practice continues tonight in Winnipeg.

Can’t wait for these games to be over with. They will also be backstopped by the often excellent Connor Hellebuyck: Both teams’ lineups will likely be remarkably different this evening as rosters begin to trim down toward the 21-23 players they’ll eventually be starting their seasons with.

Leon Draisaitl and Brett Kulak found the back of the net on Friday as the Oilers downed the Flames 2-1 at Rogers Place.

I thought he put in a good performance and I thought that line was very good too." "I thought we did a lot of the things we wanted to do against a good penalty kill. I thought he was involved, he was physical, and was a big part of the penalty kill having success. "I thought Luke was fresh and I thought Luke played a really good game for us tonight. It's nice getting that first one out of the way and learning from it and moving on." He played a heck of a game." I've had the good fortune of coaching him the last three-and-a-half years in Bakersfield, so I feel good when he's on the ice, even against NHL competition, becuase he's so darn competitive and he made a really nice play on that goal." "I knew that I wanted someone coming out of the box that wasn't in our penalty kill rotation," Woodcroft said. Fresh off serving a successful Oilers penalty kill after Darnell Nurse was involved in his first of two fights on the evening, Luke Esposito carried the puck into the Flames end and lapped the offensive zone before dropping a pass to the incoming Brett Kulak. After Cody Eakin's deflection in front of Campbell went wide, the forward wrapped around the net and got a piece of the puck on the blade of Darnell Nurse to send it goalbound. "We saw the nice finish, but he made a great play while taking a hit in order to do it." "I thought we did a good job of that tonight.
