Beyond the packed stands for the Oilers return to the playoffs for the first time in 11 years, the jackpot became $76,125 richer when the winning ticket in the March 2 game went unclaimed.
Melker Karlsson scored 3:22 into overtime giving the San Jose Sharks a 3-2 win over the Edmonton Oilers Wednesday night at Rogers Place. "We know we've got better games". "It gets you in the game, gets your team in the game". It was a half-breakaway. This season, McLellan's second behind the bench in Edmonton, he led the Oilers to their first 100-point season in, gulp, 30 years. The remaining 43 minutes of the first game, however, didn't go their way.
Oilers: Milan Lucic. The big forward factored in on both goals in Game 1, with one goal and one assist. In his last seven playoff games going back to last season, Hertl has three goals and three assists for six points and a plus-three rating. But the Sharks aren't healthy and they aren't hot.
"We're just focused on our game and what we need to do", Lucic said. They were almost 12 per cent below the league average in the percentage of loose pucks recovered in their defensive zone, a brutal performance. Things could get ugly id Edmonton goes ahead early.
It was the first playoff game in the Oilers' new downtown arena and the team's first National Hockey League post-season game in nearly 11 years.
The Sharks played without star center Joe Thornton, who is day-to-day with a left knee injury. He was a one-man wrecking crew, destroying San Jose players at every opportunity.

The teams were headed in opposite directions coming into the playoffs. "I think we've seen one of each so far".
He says they got into penalty trouble. We were down by two, but I thought we were playing well. "It was just a matter of time before the puck was going to go in".
The Oilers team record for shorthanded goals in a playoff game is three, set on April 17, 1983, in a 10-2 win over Calgary.
"Especially on the power play, (I) threw some pucks away and lost some pucks that normally I make better plays on", said Couture.
Letestu promptly passed it to a streaking Kassian, who barreled in alone and fired a wrist shot low past the blocker of goalie Martin Jones. Martin Jones has given up 152 goals on 1,725 shots faced and Aaron Dell has allowed 37 goals on 533 shots. The Oilers had already killed two penalties when Drake Caggiula got flagged for hooking with 14 seconds left in the first period. The teams each had 10 shots in the first, but San Jose outshot Edmonton 28-7 through the next 40 minutes and finished with a 44-19 edge. Joonas Donskoi came around behind the net and fed the puck in front on the backhand to Ward, who redirected the puck past Talbot.
It was a pretty drastic turnaround for the Sharks, who had won just once in 25 games all season when trailing after two periods. The Sharks are 15-6 in the last 21 meetings in Edmonton, 26-12 in the last 38 meetings and the over is 3-1-3 in the last 7 meetings.
