CANADIENS FALL TO OILERS IN OT
















(8-12-4) Edmonton Oilers 4-3 Montreal Canadiens (15-8-2)
                                       Final

Last night in Montreal, the Oilers played well against the Habs as they rallied down 3-1 to win it 4-3 in overtime. It all started back in the first, the Habs got on the board first with a Goal by Gomez. But the Oilers tied it up with a goal from Foster. But in the second the Habs took temporally control with 2 goals from Darche and Hamirlik. But the Oilers didn't give up. In the third they got a couple of goals to tie it. One from Hemsky and one from Gagne. So both teams grab a point. Were off to overtime. In overtime, Penner stoll the puck from Subban and had a breakaway and he scored to win it for the Oilers. 4-3 is your final.


"I like to think it was karma because of the saves that Price made on me earlier, with a chance like that especially in overtime, the puck was rolling and I kind of just sprinted towards it," Penner said. "I just made sure I knocked it ahead, it was a play that you see happen a lot in overtime." In the loss, Carey Price made 29 saves. In the win, Dubnyk made 36 saves."It's exciting, we were fighting pretty hard in the third and to be able to comeback, we've had struggles following up wins with wins," Gagner said. "To come back to tie the game and have Pens win it was huge." The Habs next game is tonight against the Devils.
