Edmonton Oilers vs Chicago Blackhawks
As for the game - it wasn’t pretty to watch. There were moments where the Hawks looked like they were dominating the game (including most of the third period) but giving up 3 goals in the second period certainly doesn’t make you feel great. I guess it’s good that none of the three were high glove side (I don’t think they were anyway?). Huet played a pretty solid game with Barker once again not paying attention to a forward coming in late with a rebound, a re-directed shot he didn’t have a chance on and a 5 on 3 goal. None of them should given any ammo to the haters out there, especially when you pair it with his remarkably solid performance in the shoot-out. For some reason the Avs were stickhandling themselves right out of the game and Huet came up with just about every save he needed to. I don’t think we’ll see many shoot-out wins from the Hawks, so savor this one.
