This was not what the Edmonton Oilers needed right now. The Oilers lost game one against the Winnipeg Jets at home on Wednesday night. This game was theirs to lose from the start.

The Winnipeg Jets knew what they were getting into. Winnipeg was on top of their game from the start and limited the Oilers every time they were on the ice. Connor McDavid was nowhere to be seen, and that is exactly what the Jets wanted.

The Oilers have only scored just one goal or less ten times this season, and there were only 11 games this entire season where McDavid did not register a point.
