Oilers Edge Flyers 3-2 in a One-Goal Thriller

Edmonton walks away with a 3-2 win over Philadelphia, and the scoreboard tells the story in one line: a one-goal game that the Oilers got on the right side of. Close finishes like this are where a team's identity gets tested, and Edmonton gets the two points.

Philadelphia had to chase the whole way when it mattered, and it couldn't close the gap. Two goals is a respectable total on the road, but it's not enough when the other side finds one more. Nobody in the building should be shocked that a game this tight came down to a single goal.

We didn't publish a pick on this one, so there's no ticket to cash or burn here. Our job is to tell you what happened, and what happened is simple: Oilers 3, Flyers 2.

We'd rather not guess at details we can't verify, and the final score is the one thing we can stand behind.
