Last night the Edmonton Oilers played their best road game of the season, yet came up short in a 4-3 shootout loss to the Ottawa Senators. Jason Spezza scored the winner in the shootout as his effort hit the post then banked off goaltender Jeff Deslauriers into the net.
The Oilers out shot the Senators 34-25 in the game. It was only the second time this year the Oilers have been able to out shoot an opponent. They lost that game too, the first one of the season, 4-3 to the Calgary Flames.
With the point for a shootout loss, Edmonton moves within two points of a four-way tie for sixth spot in the Western Conference.
Edmonton continues their five-game road trip by playing the Buffalo Sabres tonight!
