Oilers look to keep momentum in back-and-forth series with Golden Knights
EDMONTON — Stopping the momentum swings will be the key for the Edmonton Oilers.
Since the Vegas Golden Knights opened their second round Pacific Division final against the Oilers with a 6-4 victory last Wednesday, the series has seen dramatic pendulum shifts in play.
The Oilers were dominant in a 5-1 victory in Game 2 before the Golden Knights galloped back with a 5-1 win of their own.
The Oilers then swung the momentum back in their favour on Wednesday night with a convincing 4-1 win to knot the series at 2-2 and make it a best-of-three affair heading back to Las Vegas for Game 5 on Friday.
