EDMONTON, Alberta — The Golden Knights ran roughshod through the Pacific Division during November to climb out of their early season hole.
But they opened December with a rare division loss.
Edmonton’s Ryan Spooner capitalized on a turnover in the third period for the go-ahead goal as the Knights ended their three-game road trip with a 2-1 loss to the Oilers at Rogers Place.
The Knights had their five-game win streak snapped and dropped to 7-2-1 against division foes.
The game against the Oilers capped a stretch that saw the Knights play eight of 10 against division foes, and they went 6-2 to move into third place in the Pacific behind Calgary and Anaheim.
