I wasn't sure what to expect for this game. When the Sharks scored the first minute in, I had a bad feeling about the game. It was a classic example of what has been wrong with the Oilers last season and parts of this season. Lose a faceoff in your own zone, hard shot from the point, goalie lets out a bad rebound. The entire team is standing there watching everything happen. One the Oilers supposed best dmen - Nurse - literally watches the forward skate by him and fire it into the goal.
BUT
They didn't wilt like usual. They pushed back. They score the equalizer. Thornton makes a great play to set up the second goal but overall they played the Sharks not too bad the first period. Second period comes, on the PK which their Pk was pretty darn good, they go down and score a shortie. A massive goal, a goal that says to the Sharks we ain't going to lay down. Koskinen settles in and does what any team needs, makes some big saves and keeps his team in it. I was worried that the Sharks 3rd goal would cause them to crumble. Last in the period, one of their better dmen gets walked. But it didn't. They pushed back. Got the equalizer, Koskinen kept making big saves. Once it got to OT, I would pick the Oilers almost every time with McDavid and Leon as the duo.
So big win. In general, I think a lot of players played pretty well. I love the fact that Hitch said it took about 4 shifts before he was grinding on the guys. GOOD. They need it. The roster still has holes but the players on the team need a kick in the ass and if they play hard and get reasonably goaltending they CAN compete.
I would start Koskinen next game and if he plays decent, start him again. The team needs wins and right now he gives them the best chance to win.
