Our season is now a week old, and we celebrate with just two games, beginning in...
Edmonton, where the Oilers welcome the New Jersey Devils. Martin Brodeur faces a lesser foe in Jason LaBarbera in goal. New Jersey began with a first period Jaromir Jagr goal, assisted by Marek Zidlicky. The Devils added on as Damien Brunner scored his third of the season, a power play goal powered by Travis Zajac and Adam Henrique. New Jersey extended the lead in the second period on a Michael Ryder goal, his second of the year, going in unassisted. Edmonton got on the board in the third period as Ryan Nugent-Hopkins scored a power play goal, guided in by David Perron and Boyd Gordon. The Oilers got closer as Andrew Ference scored, thanks to Justin Schultz and Jordan Eberle. Edmonton tied it on a Perron goal, with a lone assist by Mark Arcobello. The Oilers pulled ahead as Taylor Hall scored, with the help of Ales Hemsky. The Devils retied the game with a shorthanded goal by Patrik Elias, set up by Brunner and Zidlicky. Edmonton took the game 5-4 in the shootout with goals by Eberle and Perron. The three stars were Perron, Brunner, and Eberle, while Zidlicky gets an honorable mention.
The other game is from Los Angeles, where the Kings bring in the New York Rangers. Henrik Lundqvist and Jonathan Quick tend the twines. New York led off in the first period with a Brad Richards goal, fueled by Rick Nash and Derek Stepan. The Rangers added on in the second period as Brad Richards scored again, with the help of Nash. Los Angeles got on the board with a Jake Muzzin goal, coming off of Mike Richards. New York answered in the third period with a shorthanded Ryan McDonagh goal, set up by Brian Boyle. This was good for a 3-1 final, with the three stars being Brad Richards, Lundqvist (28 for 29 in saves), and Nash.
