EDMONTON — It was a sloppy win, but the Edmonton Oilers weren’t about to complain.
Zack Kassian added two goals, and Connor McDavid and Evan Bouchard also scored for the Oilers, who improved to 3-0-0 on the season. “I will say this, I’m proud of that group, back-to-back game playing against an elite team and the way we battled and stayed in it and kept coming back, never quit," said Ducks head coach Dallas Eakins."That’s a big step forward for us even though we didn’t get the points,”
Anaheim grabbed a 1-0 lead five minutes into the first as Shattenkirk crept in to take a feed from Trevor Zegras and beat Smith up high, giving the veteran defenceman a point in all four Ducks games this season. Edmonton made it 3-2 on a two-man advantage with 30 seconds left in the period as McDavid set up Draisaitl for his first of the season and the 200th goal of his NHL career.
Smith appeared to be injured shortly thereafter, left for the dressing room, and was replaced in net by Koskinen.
It’d be great if people in the Edmonton region like myself could watch this game on TSN Direct, which advertises having Oilers hockey, only to find out TSN has ZERO Oilers broadcasting rights. And when asked to be refunded because of this, they are told no
