May 1, 20179 yr This match was very entertaining. Anaheim jumped out to a 3-0 lead, but Edmonton came roaring back tying it 3-3 on a Conner McDavid goal 8:40 into the 2nd period. However, just 48 seconds later, Duck Chris Wagner got a bad shot by Cam Talbot to reclaim the lead 4-3. The expression "The goalie stood on his head." literally played out as the Oilers hammered Goalie John Gibson the remainder of the 2nd period and Gibson made some great saves, including one that had him roll head over heals. Edmonton pinged the puck off the pipe during that barrage. It would be the closest they'd come to scoring the rest of the way. The 3rd period was all Anaheim. Things got a little chippy at the end, with Edmonton doing a little head hunting. The game ended with the Ducks on a power play after Patrick Maroon hit Josh Manson as he was trying to get off the ice. The Oilers lead the series 2-1. Game 4 is Tuesday night in Edmonton.
