The Oilers surrendered two unanswered goals, and Melker Karlsson finished the game with an impressive tally in overtime. It was by no means the best game the Oilers have played, and the biggest reason for their loss was due to their opportunities.
First off, the Oilers could barely get too much on net. In the first period, they had drive and speed, and used that momentum to score two goals to take that lead after 20 minutes. However, after that, they couldn’t figure out how to get past San Jose.
