The one thing the Edmonton Oilers displayed in their overtime loss to the Colorado Avalanche is that they have grit. Not only that but also displayed toughness and a never-give-up attitude throughout the game. This team found a way to stay competitive throughout the game but still displayed some of the flaws that have plagued them this year.
One thing to make a note of is that this was the first matchup between these two teams this year. They will face off once again later this month on two separate occasions, but this game might be a precursor of how they’ll matchup in their next encounter.
