Edmonton dug in and picked up their first win over Vancouver with goals from Andrew Mangiapane and Noah Philp, and a late empty-netter by Leon Draisaitl sealing the deal.
Vancouver’s lone goal came early in the third period, scored by Brock Boeser, with the helper from Quinn Hughes, who also hit a milestone in assists.
🎯 Demko Was a Wall
Thatcher Demko stopped 34 shots, standing on his head through waves of Oilers pressure.
According to Sportsnet, Vancouver was outshot 37–15, meaning without Demko, this game could’ve been a blowout.
👤 Pettersson Was Ghosted
Elias Pettersson was essentially invisible. He didn’t make much of an impact—no goals, no real chances that threatened the Oilers’ net.
The offense never found traction with him, and the shift of pressure mostly bypassed his line.
In a game where the team desperately needed someone to shake things open, he was largely off the narrative.

Anyways, grade the Canucks.
When is Management going to make the call on Pettersson? 15-20 Games if things don't improve decisions need to be made on the player and that contract
Nancy Bhawan is a smart lady.
Pettersson has been in a slump for a season and a half… There is no more patience for wait for him to get his game back. Send back the checks
If Raty could learn to finish his hits he’d be so much more effective
Bains is going to carry us to the playoffs he's
Kyle couldn’t help it that’s awesome true fan😅
