After losing such a disappointing game in Game 1 against the Golden Knights, the Oilers needed to regroup and change their strategy and come out firing on all cylinders in Game 2. Their mission was accomplished when the Oilers put five goals past Laurent Brossoit and won the Game 5-1.
Of course, the game did not disappoint with fists flying and Golden Knights players trying to start fights with the Oilers. With 5 minutes left in the third period, the Oilers and the Golden Knights exchanged some pushing and shoving and lots of arguing as the Golden Knights became increasingly frustrated with their results.
Oilers forward Evander Kane was having a field day with Golden Knights right winger Keegan Kolesar. You can see Kane having a good laugh and feeling very confident. In that same scrum, you can even see Oilers defenseman Darnell Nurse waving goodbye to another Golden Knights player as he's escorted off the ice with Nurse having a big smile on his face.
The Oilers were having fun tonight, and they have switched gears as the series moves to Edmonton for games three and four. It will be interesting how the Golden Knights respond after such a poor performance, but one thing is certain, the Oilers are happy to be back in the series.
