Pouliot scores twice, Oilers down Capitals 4-1 for fourth straight win
EDMONTON — The Edmonton Oilers aren’t used to this type of start to a season.
Benoit Pouliot had a pair of goals as the Oilers stretched their winning streak to four games with a 4-1 victory over the Washington Capitals on Wednesday.
“I think this start is huge for us,” Pouliot said after watching his team improve to 6-1-0.
“The last couple of years, we haven’t had good starts and it is tough to climb back. Now we are having a good start, and we just have to keep it going.”
