Edmonton Oilers Put On Solid Two-Way Effort In 4-1 Win Over Dallas: Hockey Player Ratings Worship

The Edmonton Oilers put together one of the best defensive efforts of the season by beating a very tough Dallas team 4-1.

Edmonton got another consistent performance into the net from Stuart Skinner, a shorty to take a 2 goal lead and then a well timed power play goal to restore the lead. An empty net was cast. Meanwhile, a stuttering Edmonton PK was a perfect 4 out of 4. Making the final 4-1 oils.

A moment of silence was observed before the hockey game in memory of two members of the Edmonton Police Service who were killed in the city early Thursday morning. You may have heard a pin drop. Their hockey team cheered them on on a difficult day for the city of champions.

This is the story of the tape…
