The Edmonton Oilers played ugly last night versus the Chicago Blackhawks but still managed to come away with two points. The Oilers two superstars Connor McDavid and Leon Draisaitl scored the only two goals for the Copper and Blue, who beat the Blackhawks 2-1. Despite goals from those two, Stuart Skinner was arguably the Oilers best player denying Chicago on numbers occasions which helped elevate his save percentage back over 900.
With another victory last night, Edmonton has now won eight games in a row with the Detroit Red Wings next up on Thursday. The Oilers still sit in the second wildcard spot two points behind the Nashville Predators, who has played four more games than them. Based on win percentage, the Oilers are now ahead of the Predators.
Tyler Yaremchuk and Liam Horrobin will break everything down from last nights game, including two controversial disallowed goals against the Oilers. Let the guys know your thoughts too.

Also on today’s show, Frank Seravalli from Daily Faceoff released his updated trade targets list. The Oilers do not have anyone on the list after Warren Foegele was listed on the initial targets earlier in the year. However, the big headliner of the 25 man list is Trevor Zegras from the Anaheim Ducks. The Ducks recently acquired Cutter Gauthier from the Philadelphia Flyers so could mean the conclusion of Zegras’ time in Anaheim is on the horizon?

That goalie interference was a brutal call. Tyler is out to lunch.
TYLER YOU ARE WRONG
Clear goalie interference
Yeah that's not right Tyler. He's not in the crease when the shot is taken. How do you not see this???
They dont ask how pretty, they ask how many
Its the Oilers, not a chance we get the benefit of the doubt on the 1st Hyman goal
its because it was vs Chicago, the league's baby. NHL Loves Chicago and Vegas
With Hyman's disallowed goals, there should be a league off game appeal for the goals. If it just increase the lead or ties, should be ok but if it's an actual loss it will be final as the games already over or at least give a tied point.
Oh it's edmonton. Then it's offside is how it goes.
