Oilers Win Game 3

Oilers Score

The Edmonton Oilers found out there’s more than one way to beat Cam Ward.

A deflected shot works. Or simply fling yourself toward the net — and hope.

Ryan Smyth scored a disputed goal off a rebound with 2:15 left in the third period and the Oilers won a game they had to have, beating the Carolina Hurricanes 2-1 Saturday night to ensure these teams will be returning to Tobacco Road.

Carolina’s lead in the best-of-seven series is now 2-1, with Game 4 in Edmonton on Monday night and at least one more game in Raleigh. #

Oilers Celebrate

Man, the Oilers actually won tonight… Whoulda thunk that? Judging by my last post about game 2 of the NHL finals, certainly not me. Not really cheering for either team here, but it would be nice to see Edmonton (a Canadian team) win it all.
