Zach Hyman had two goals and an assist and Leon Draisaitl had a goal and two assists as the Edmonton Oilers defeated the Vancouver Canucks 6-2 on Thursday.
In a marquee rematch against the Oilers, the Canucks didn't start to find their legs until they were down by five goals.
Garland, of all people, jabbed at Calvin Pickard when the Oilers goalie had the puck covered midway through the second period, which ignited a scrum behind the net. Perry quickly got involved. He was about to grab Canucks centre Elias Pettersson until he saw defenceman Quinn Hughes, who’d come in off his point, without a dance partner.
After all the hostility at the end of Saturday game, all the talk about "response" and using all this emotion to their advantage, the Canucks barely made a peep on Thursday. Where has all the heart gone?
Somehow, this soon-to-be 40-year-old, who had one assist and one shot on goal, was on everyone’s lips post-game on a night when Zach Hyman scored twice, Leon Draisaitl had three points, and too many Canucks to name shorted their employer in a game the Oilers led 5-0 at the 32-minute mark.
The Oilers prove their ability to win even without the best player in the game, as Leon Draisaital and Zach Hyman dominate with some help from Corey Perry.
