Edmonton Oilers

Much stronger effort all-around, and nice to see Skinner making some stops. Magic number is now 14 wins or bust.

What an out-of-character great game from the Oilers. They clearly didn't have the desperation of the Kings but stuck with it defensively and kept things tame enough for Skinner to stand tall. Huge confidence booster for the squad to have Skinner pitch a shutout as well. I wish they played this type of game against a more explosive team because they've already proven they can beat the Kings who aren't an offensive powerhouse. Maybe they'll get that chance. Either way, very encouraging. The number is now 13 wins or bust.

I didn't watch last night's game but saw in the ramblings that Nurse and Ceci were split up. Can anyone tell me what the defense pairings were last night?

Ekholm-Bouchard
Nurse-Desharnais
Kulak-Ceci

These pairings seemed to stabilize the back end a bit. Ceci is struggling a bit this series but hasn't been terrible. Just need the bottom 6 F to pop in a couple of goals.
