A power play goal? Seriously&#8230; It happened. Final Score: 2-1 Oilers.

Today&#8217;s game was a huge opportunity for the Oilers to grab a win since the Hurricanes played Boston yesterday. For the most part the Oilers played well, but there were still far too many WTF moments against a team that was supposed to be tired. I was thinking of starting an Oilers 2 on 1 drinking game but I don&#8217;t think the healthcare system would be able to handle the alcohol poisonings. The cross ice passes to the other team have got to stop. Luckily the giveaways didn&#8217;t burn us this time.
One thing is for sure, Matt Hendricks had a hell of a game. The guy plays like he&#8217;s on fire. I&#8217;ll admit, when the Oilers traded for him I was worried about the contract length, but the more I watch him play the more I love him. Let&#8217;s all hope his old carcass can hold up for the next 3 years because he brings something to the team that they&#8217;ve been lacking &#8211; huge balls. It&#8217;s starting to make sense as to why they put an &#8220;A&#8221; on his jersey already. Hopefully his gritty play rubs off on others.
Let&#8217;s wrap it up&#8230;
