Calvin Pickard made 13 saves in relief of Stuart Skinner four goals on 12 shots. 'I see a lot of guys who are working hard and who care,' Edmonton coach Kris Knoblauch said.

We've just got to get away from it. 'Jesper Fast put the Hurricanes up 1 0 at 9:17 of the first, scoring on the rebound of Chatfield's point shot.

'We were just slow with the puck, slow with our feet,' Oilers forward Ryan Nugent Hopkinssaid. 'If you play long enough against these guys, you know that they start fast and put the puck behind you and make you work, especially early in the game. We talked about it, and obviously it wasn't good enough to start. 'Teravainen finished off Sebastian Aho's backhand pass across the slot to make it 3 0 at 11:23. 'You always want to have good starts,' Chatfield said. 'Early in the year, we weren't having that.

The Hurricanes scored four goals in 5:31 in the first period. 'We had a terrible start,' Edmonton forward Evander Kanesaid Sebastian Aho Jersey. 'No energy, they were faster. They kept a tempo.

'They're kind of throwing all caution to the wind and they've got nothing to lose,' Brind'Amour said. 'Obviously, the shorty is bad.
