The Oilers plain and simple came out flat in Game One. Losing the game 3-0 in front of a home crowd that was mysteriously full of green jerseys. All that is put aside now as Edmonton needs to head down to Big D with a 1-1 series score. Today will have a new start time to try and give everyone a chance to tune in, young and old. Game Two will begin right here at 2:30pm MT.
About 15 minutes prior to game time, the stream will be live here:

The Wrap:
The weirdness of the lower seeds winning both games continues. The hero is Anders Lee with a monster two goals and an assist performance. Holtby found himself on the bench before the game was 25 minutes old. Rough starts for both home teams in these WCF and ECF games. We will see how they both bounce back.
