Oilers shut out Flyers 2-0

[Event Summary]

[Cult of Hockey]

All was as it should have been last night in Edmonton.

Taylor Hall got the Oilers on the board and up 1-0 with a powerplay goal, his 22nd of the season. Jordan Eberle would later add his 27th in addition to an apple assist on the Hall powerplay goal. Devan Dubnyk shut out one of the highest scoring teams in the NHL. The Oilers proved that they again are a formidable opponent in Edmonton.

I have all along felt that Ales Hemsky is part of the solution in Edmonton, and he was signed to a 2-year contract extension today.
