[Event Summary]

I watched a pretty good amount of last night's game.The crowd in Winnipeg really seemed to be into this one and things got chippy after the Oilers pulled away 5-2 late in the game.

Here's Taylor Hall's 23rd Geno of the season. He actually talked to the officials after netting it and said that it was Lennart Petrell's goal in the way a good teammate does.



Hall was all over the ice last night, netting the goal, and an assist early in the game to tie the score at 1-1. He was +1 on the evening. He's got 48 points now on the year.
