06:13Morazic's going to hang on for a whistle
06:18oh that's an absolutely massive hit James

07:59yeah and they're inching closer and closer to more goals here
08:02as they get the first one of the game
08:04and sometimes scoring is a struggle James
08:06but when you put one by the tender
08:07often it comes in bunches
08:11Burrows carries the puck in his own zone
08:15Edmonton's got to hold him in against the wall
08:17big time stop!
08:19well these are the saves

09:13they've saved up the game plan
09:14and they've been rewarded for their efforts
09:17we often spend so much time talking about the goal score
09:20and what a beautiful finish it was
09:22but how about this time?
09:23it's all about the effort to get in and retrieve the puck
09:27this is a battle and it all starts with a great body check
09:30some physicality and energy to his game
09:32to be able to retrieve and get possession of the puck
09:39the beers get it back to even Steven here in period number one
09:42yeah and halfway through the period
09:44you know they find their legs
09:45you can certainly tell that they've found their mojo a little bit here
09:49and they're able to get on the board
09:50you gotta trust the process in these games
09:51if you can play consistent you'll get your high looks
09:56trying to get the punch out of his own end
09:58oh what a start with the paddle
10:02Edmonton's got the puck against the half wall
10:04stick save off the deflection
10:07in front and a stoppage on the play

10:22and that's off a stick
10:25from along the walls they're gaining momentum
10:30the Bears have it now
10:31shot
10:32oh he somehow got a little piece of it
10:36and it stays out of the net
10:38passes over to Johnson Fjallby
10:41they've got numbers
10:43here's a chance
10:44oh big time blocker stopped by Morasic
10:50St. Petersburg's on the attack
10:52oh just a great heads up play
10:54by Howard
10:56nice pro check inside the attacking zone
10:58I love this pro check by the defender
11:01and this isn't easy
11:02you know the pace of play
11:03and the speed coming down on you
11:04you have to make sure that that timing is correct
11:07because if you miss
11:08they're by
11:09and you look pretty safe
11:10and that's broken up with a stick in front
11:14St. Petersburg's got the puck along the boards
11:18who's in front?
11:19and he denies that great opportunity there
11:23and now he tries to get it across to Dreisaitl
11:26good defensive stop on the pro check
11:29feeds it to Stetland
11:33passes it over
11:34and he has the answer on that one
11:38goaltender covers it up
11:39he got a whistle to slow things down
11:43more than half the frame has been played here
11:45the next goal could be a big one
11:47as we are tied
11:49Newton Hopkins wins the draw inside his defensive zone
11:54the Oilers move the puck in the defensive zone
11:57and loses possession after a stolen hit
12:00a court leg
12:01blocked away by Chari
12:04what a fantastic save from the high danger scoring area
12:07James
12:07I mean he's bailing his team out
12:09they have to do a better job of protecting the middle of the ice
12:12picked up along the wall by Newton Hopkins
12:14oh and somehow he gets a sliver of it
12:17and keeps him at bay
12:21he's tracking the puck extremely well right now
12:23just have a look at that last save
12:25to be able to get in front of that puck
12:27to be able to keep it out of the net
12:29outstanding performance by him on that last one
12:39both teams gliding into position and the official set to drop the puck
12:49the Oilers will start off on the attack after winning the draw
12:52and a great save
12:55Brasic's in such great position
12:56he's able to redirect that puck to safety right to the corner
13:01Dishes it all
13:04and he takes the pass
13:06here's the shot
13:08comes up with a stop
13:10and they'll cover it up forcing a stoppage in play
13:27St. Petersburg's won the draw
13:31to the low slot
13:34takes the feed
13:36takes it on left
13:37and that goes off the player in front
13:41Heads it over
13:43they've really got on their heels here now
13:46and here's the whistle
13:48as the bullpenner will hang on for a much needed stoppage
13:53both sides lining up for the faceoff
13:55and I can think of one padded goal turner who would love
13:59nothing more than a quick clear here Cheryl
14:01you know it James because the puck has been in the offensive zone
14:04just look at the last shift
14:05where they maintain pressure
14:08throughout that shift until they got that whistle
14:10so they'll need to continue that
14:11because if you're the opponent and you're saying
14:12hey, who's most vulnerable right now
14:14you know it's the goaltender
14:15you want to keep him in
14:16oh they telegraph the pass and he puts it off
14:19the Bears take possession here in the open ice
14:25coming down the left wing and into the zone
14:28reads it perfectly and comes up with the takeaway
14:33puck is frozen and we'll get a faceoff
14:40here in the late goings of the period
14:43we got a tie game
14:49offense is on faceoff and he wins the draw
14:55Edmonton's gained possession along the board
15:14by Nugent
15:16and they send it right back to him
15:20and a stick in the lane ends that track
15:23Edmonton's got it in their own zone
15:25grabbed along the board by Nugent
15:27and they send it right back to him
15:27they send it right back to him 3-4-5-90s
15:28quick pass to Lozog
15:31cupping to the plate
15:32quick to stop
15:33Pahal is looking to make something happen here in the corner
15:36oh my god, he was going to be beaten and he's somehow got a piece of that
15:41from one point man to another
15:43taken by Glenn Denning
15:45Quick feed to Pahar.
15:48Oh, your goal is really ratcheting off the incursion here now in the Ozone.
15:54And that's taken from the corner.
15:57Oh, big cut saves right there.
16:01Another shot.
16:03There is a collision.
16:07Skates with it.
16:08Gives it to Kudzie.
16:10Has some physicality here.
16:13And the team comes up with it.
16:15Here's a cross-eye speed.
16:17And they skated out of the danger zone.
16:21You've got to figure he knows about this next milestone.
16:23He's only one goal away.
16:29That's it for period number one.
16:31Second period action coming up in moments here on EA Sports.
16:35First, we need to announce this one that Fade Bank can get access to the first round position.
16:40Practice for modern tours is absolutely free.
16:44So what are you waiting for?
16:45Fade Bank, your team's proud exclusive banking partner.
16:54First, we have to come back up for four years.
16:55Two, three, four, four.
17:13Five, four, five, four.
17:16Two, one, two, three.
29:06Robertson's won a big draw on their own end.
29:13Here's a chance to the middle!
29:14And that's stopped!
29:20Yari's made a great save here.
29:22Let's have another look at it.
29:23I mean, they're in a high-danger area
29:24and he is so dialed in at the top of his crease.
29:27Very athletic to be able to make this save.
29:29Incorrect position.
29:38Center's gliding up to the face-off.
29:40Dot's here.
29:45The Oilers win it in the defensive zone!
29:49St. Petersburg's got it now!
29:51There's a shot!
29:52And they'll get a breather as the goaltender covers it up.
30:05And as the puck is dropped, they win the draw here inside the defensive zone.
30:10And he sidesteps the check there.
30:16St. Petersburg's got the puck along the wall.
30:19Slides it diagonally, triples on.
30:22The Oilers pick up the puck here in the neutral zone.
30:25Thumbs up on the stump as he got a piece of the blocker on it!
30:29Ooh!
30:30Cotton Robinson's got the puck in his own zone!
30:36Edmonton's got the puck!
30:38Puck grabbed by Schwartz!
30:41Along the right side into the offensive zone!
30:45And knocks it down out of mid-air!
30:48Quick pass to Puck Slade!
30:53Yes!
30:54Edmonton's got control of it now from their own end!
30:59Great reach with the puck check!
31:01St. Petersburg's got the puck in the defensive end!
31:04Quick feed to Glenn Denny!
31:06Oh, it gets a blocker on it!
31:08What a stop by Charing!
31:10And the puck stopper hangs on to get a breather here for the team.
31:15Past the midway mark in this period.
31:18Been a pretty good offensive display, at least for one side.
31:213-1 is where we sit.
31:25St. Petersburg's won the draw.
31:26Now let's see what they can do with it!
31:29Looking to make something happen along the boards!
31:32And that pass goes off a stick!
31:34Moose it to Ethelm!
31:38St. Petersburg's got the puck here in the open ice!
31:44The Oilers gain control over the puck!
31:48Here they come on the attack!
31:51Redirected off one of his own line mates there!
31:58Just here in the late stages of this frame, Edmonton's got a 3-1 lead!
32:03As they have dominated for the most part in this!
32:06The Oilers take possession here inside the offensive zone!
32:10Scrub along the wall!
32:15Here's a short pass to Walden!
32:18They've got Rivers here!
32:19With the stop!
32:21And the goaltender grabs that one for a whistle to try to slow things down here!
32:28Puck possession so critical in today's game!
32:31And the official ready to drop the puck right here!
32:38The Oilers win that offensive zone face off!
32:43Puck picked up by Dreisaitl!
32:45Answers the call big time!
32:47What a stop by Morazic!
32:49The goaltenders are the last line of defense for a reason!
32:52And this time, he bails his team out!
33:03McDavid's won the draw there on the attack!
33:05And that's blocked from someone in front!
33:09St. Petersburg's got a hold of the puck!
33:13Burrows high tails it back into the play after his stick just explodes!
33:17And he has to grab another one from the bench!
33:27The Oilers win the face off!
33:29Sander bears down on that bottom hand!
33:31A clean win!
33:32And you can see them all setting up!
33:33Looking to attack the net against this tired group!
33:37Excellent stick work on the play!
33:39Moves it quickly over to Kulak!
33:41And now he moves it quickly to Obey Kubel!
33:44What a steal in his own end!
33:47Quick pass to Dreisaitl!
33:49And now he handles it across to McDavid!
33:52To his teammate!
33:53Oh!
33:54How did he get it?
33:55Come on, though!
33:56What a stop by Morazic!
34:19Here in the later stages of this period, Edmonton's got a 3-1 lead!
34:25Here in the later stages of this period, Edmonton's got a 3-1 lead!
34:29Puck is dropped and he wins the draw here in the defensive zone!
34:33Quick feed to Fabry!
34:36Nearing the 40-minute mark of the game!
34:40The Oilers will play it in their own end!
34:43Handles the pass up center!
34:47Slides the puck across to Eckholm!
34:52St. Petersburg's got a hold of it along the wall!
34:55Along the side, here they come through the neutral zone!
35:03Moves the puck!
35:10And that'll bring an end to the second period of play!
35:13Okay, let's get a clean sheet of ice and come back with the third period next!
35:48What was the next two for?
35:52And it's the same for the third period, we could do the third period, we could do really.
35:58That was the third one!
36:03Let's make a break!
36:03What was the third one?
36:04What was the third one?!
36:04No!
36:09You never got rid of it!
36:12I was like, oh my God!
40:18Here they come on the attack down the right side.
40:23St. Petersburg's got it from behind the net.
40:27Robertson's moving the puck through his own zone.
40:29Quick shot.
40:31Quick shot.
40:31And he comes up with it.
40:32Picked up along the wall by Obey Crubel.
40:39Here's a shot.
40:40Here's a shot.
40:41It's going to be a close to constantly.
40:43I'm going to be right back.
40:44I'm going to be right back.
40:49I think there's a song being played in the goaltender's ear because this puck was just whistled stick side.
40:59I mean, unbelievable shot.
41:02I mean, unbelievable shot.
41:48I'm going to be right back.
41:53I'm going to be right back.
41:56I'm going to be right back.
41:57I'm going to be right back.
41:58Here's a shot.
41:59Petersburg still got a goal here, but they have really picked up the tempo these last few minutes.
42:05The Oilers carry it on the wall.
42:07Just wide.
42:10Gains the zone on the left wing.
42:14Dishes it off.
42:16Here's a chance up front.
42:18Perfectest block on the play.
42:20And the bench really erupts on that one because otherwise he scores!
42:24The monster left with his hands is at Drew Mark James.
42:27That's a hundred points. That's a nice accomplishment.
42:44He's going to get an assist on this play and a lot of fist bumps from his teammates because he
42:48had to initiate contact to be able to get this puck.
42:51I mean, everything's about recovery and retrieval, but you've got to initiate something to even get the puck loose.
42:56He does a great job of it, and he winds up getting an assist on the goal.
43:11St. Petersburg's effort in the offensive zone has resulted in the equalizer, and look at this, Cheryl.
43:16Tie game. Third period. Let's dig it.
43:18Let's dig it. Let's go, if that's what you mean.
43:21But this is fantastic. Anytime two teams, good teams at bat, meet, you know that it's going to go back
43:25and forth, but really believe that the momentum has shifted here.
43:29The urgency that they've led the third period with has been outstanding.
43:33Morazic's got the puck, and he's got the puck, and he's going to hang on.
43:38Nearing the midway mark of the period. It's all tied up.
43:45The Oilers will start off on the attack after winning the draw.
43:49Oh, trucker saved by Morazic.
43:55St. Petersburg's got the puck along the boards.
43:58Passes it over to Draft.
44:01Sends it on the front.
44:03Oh, he comes up with a stop.
44:05Play is blown dead with the offside.
44:13Teams are ready for the draw. The Lionsmen about to drop the puck.
44:22Robertson's won the draw inside the neutral zone.
44:26Slides the puck over.
44:28Robertson's usually an impact player, and tonight he's been really quiet.
44:32You've got to expect that he's going to find his game, because he needs to if his team wants to
44:36win.
44:36This one's still close. They can still get it done, but he needs to be a difference maker.
44:42St. Petersburg's got a hold of it against the wall.
44:44St. Petersburg's got a hold of it against the ball.
44:45Here's a short pass to Owen Covell.
44:47And there's a save.
44:51Dreisaitl's lugging the puck.
44:53And he slides it quickly to Schwartz.
44:55Couldn't catch up to that pass.
44:58St. Petersburg's gained possession along the boards.
45:02Tosses it on to Palat.
45:04And not much on that one.
45:06Feeds the puck to Schwartz.
45:07And now he moves it to Dreisaitl.
45:12Takes the pass.
45:14Oh, puts it wide and up.
45:16No one got him back.
45:18Well, you can see the frustration right there.
45:20I think there's a sense of urgency, but he had more time than he thought.
45:27Across the line from center.
45:31Across the point.
45:33Feeds it over.
45:35Moves it quickly over to Samoa.
45:38And the shot dies in the traffic jam.
45:41Huge steal at his own end.
45:43He looks deep to Dreisaitl.
45:47The shot comes up with a stop.
45:49I would have lost the puck three times by the time that I'd been handled like that by the coverage.
45:54I mean, but he doesn't.
45:55He just knows how to move and maneuver his body around the puck.
45:58He can shield it, and he maintains possession for a great shot on net.
46:12And that deadlock is broken as they take the lead.
46:17Well, that's a huge shift, and you can see everyone standing up on the bench.
46:20They know how much it means, but it's the next shift that matters most now, James.
46:24You want to kind of push and put pressure on your opponent when they're down.
46:44The Oilers jump in front by a one-goal lead and a critical stage in this one, too, here, Cheryl.
46:50Well, yeah, if they want to close this game out, it's all about managing the puck and managing the puck
46:54on your stick.
46:55You want to make sure you take care of business, which means you've got to own the puck and not
46:58turn it over in vulnerable spots.
47:01Core Timber hangs on for the whistle.
47:07Hyman's been sniffing in and around the net all game long.
47:09Multiple scoring opportunities finally going to connect on the last one.
47:13But if you look at his body of work over the course of the game, he's had a lot of
47:16sustained pressure in the offensive zone, and he's been a real threat.
47:35More than half the period has expired.
47:38Edmonton's got the momentum with a one-goal lead.
47:41They'd love to add to that.
47:46St. Petersburg's one is now going to go on the attack.
47:49Beautiful read in the defensive end by Hyman.
47:53Edmonton's been working hard away from the puck, and they're using their awareness to take away angles and seams,
47:58and this is something they're doing with their stick positioning.
48:00Coach talked about it pregame, how important it was going to be.
48:04Pick pass to Lozob.
48:07Looks to set up at the point now.
48:10Kapanen's got it near the point.
48:12Pops up with the block.
48:15And that's knocked away by Dreisaitl.
48:19Hyman's got it on the offensive end.
48:21And he just did a shot.
48:23Stucked by the goaltender.
48:25The Oilers played along the boards.
48:28Here's at last.
48:29Makes the save.
48:31Oh, it's another consecutive save.
48:34And look at this.
48:36That's really wrapping up the intensity here.
48:38Oh, what a mother big screen.
48:44This game is wild, James.
48:46End-to-end action.
48:47Let's just forget the defense, shall we, and just go with the goal calls.
48:51Big time stop there.
48:53Huck moved over to Roman.
48:56Edmonton's got it along the wall.
48:58Can't maintain possession after that hit.
49:03The Oilers gain possession.
49:09Grabbed along the board by Mangiapane.
49:11Oh, it's a smooth scan to lose the defender there.
49:14Big time save by Razek.
49:17Well, this is an incredible save, James.
49:19It's anticipation as well.
49:21Recognize that the shooter is in the low slot, getting in front of it, and making the save.
49:25Here in the late goings of the period, the Oilers lead it 4-3.
49:34Back underway as he wins the draw beside the offensive's arm.
49:38Shuts him down.
49:39Now he slides it up to Fabry.
49:45The Oilers take over on possession.
49:49Edmonton's playing it through center.
49:52Sends a pass over.
49:54Slides it across.
49:55He scores!
49:57Right on target.
49:59Wow.
49:59Yeah, that's unbelievable, isn't it, James?
50:01That shot goes top cheese and just knocks the bottle off of the top of the net.
50:06It's Bottle Pops.
50:08We're going to talk about the goal, but how about getting to those tight spots in tight, in and around
50:12the paint,
50:12and then the ability to finish with a quick wrister.
50:15That's a great goal.
50:37The Oilers aren't far from the finish line now as they lead it late in this third period.
50:44And they win that neutral zone draw.
50:46Quick feed to Eckholm.
50:50Skates to the close.
50:52Good reach and steps it out the puck away.
50:55Ships off the covering.
50:58Edmonton's got the puck along the wall.
51:01Moves with the puck in the corner.
51:04Donnison in front.
51:05You need this fight perfectly, James.
51:07It gets tight to the shooter.
51:08There's no room to put it by him.
51:12Moves it to Schwartz.
51:17The Bears have it now.
51:20Through the open ice.
51:22They're picking up steam.
51:27Dish on over to Obey Kubel.
51:32Edmonton's got it in their own zone.
51:34And here's the pass to Lewis.
51:36Oh, no!
51:38Oh, no!
51:38What a save!
51:40And a huge stop here in this third period.
51:42Oh, and you know that stop is going to lift his team up.
51:46The ability to give them some momentum here late in the third.
51:50Takes it into the slot.
51:51And he goes back to Riku.
51:53Presses it over.
51:55South Petersburg's emptied the net.
51:57The extra attackers now out on the ice.
52:01Edmonton's looking to break out.
52:02And he feeds it down to Bouchard.
52:04And he feeds it down to Bouchard.
52:05Handles the pass.
52:07Fires to the empty net.
52:09And comes up empty.
52:10St. Petersburg's got possession to the puck.
52:13Here's a short pass to Fabry.
52:16Grabs control of it at the point.
52:18Denied by Jorion.
52:20And he was able to stop that rebound, too.
52:23Goaltender spent so much time doing tracking exercises, and it's utilized right here as he knows where this puck is
52:29coming from.
52:30And he makes the save.
52:31And that goes off a player.
52:33Takes it along the wall by Kraft.
52:36They are really fussing here in the offensive end.
52:40Oh, look at that hit.
52:43And the guys down to the road end.
52:45And look at that.
52:46They finally get it out, and here they go in transition.
52:49Misses.
52:53There's the team.
52:54And they are officially a playoff squad.
53:09What a game!
53:13Was this not the definition of a business trip tonight?
53:17Absolutely.
53:18Nose to the grindstone.
53:19Finding a way to get it done in someone else's bar.
53:22Muting the crowd and clinching, punching your ticket to the playoffs.
53:26I'd say that's success.
53:28Well, that puts a bow on the night here this evening.
53:30From all of us here at EA Sports, I'm James Cebalski.
53:33See ya!
53:44I want to go to school.
53:50Hi, James.
53:54Come on!
53:54Come on!
53:57Go to school!
54:00Come on!
54:01Come on!
54:03Let's go!
54:03Come on!
54:03Come on!
