- Recaps and other assorted musings on last night’s win from us, Vogs (plus game notes), Monumental video (highlights, Trotz, Holtby, Orlov, Wilson, Laich, Alzner, McLellan, Oilers room), NHL.com, AP, WaPo, CSNMA, Peerless, Frankovic, RMNB, and from up north, Edmonton Sun, Edmonton Journal, Cult of Hockey and Copper & Blue.
- “Good, veteran teams know how to manage situations. The Oil should have had 3 solid minutes to try and get the equalizer.

I hope the Oilers were taking notes.” [Oil on Whyte]
