Question.. forget how many first goals of the game have the Oilers given up this year.. how many of the first TWO goals have they given up?

I saw these on twitter the other day, they're pretty cool and free on his site. Definitely shows how ridiculously lopsided it is for the Oilers in terms of giving up the first goal, and then looks like they're slightly more likely to then go down 2-0 vs tying it at 1-1.
