Edmonton 3 @ Vancouver 4 (OT)

The Oil breezed into Lotus Land with revenge on their minds. That set the stage for a hard fought game that went into overtime, where Vancouver managed to come up with the win.

Vancouver was up 1-0 after the 1st, and 2-0 on a shorty early in the second, but the oil came back 6 seconds later with a pp goal that kept it close. Vancouver went on to lead 3-1 after 2. The Oil were relentless in the 3rd period, and scored 2 goals in the dying minutes to tie it up.

A defensive lapse by the Oil cost them the game early in OT as Henrik Sedin scored a pretty goal on a breakaway.

Dragon. If you are going to post the player stats like that, don't forget to add who got the game winning goal. I assumed it was the last player you posted for this game, and for your others I assumed it was the first person since you got shutouts.

Ok, cool. What you have is good, but I just wasn't sure about the game winner.
