13 Straight Wins For The Edmonton Oilers

from Mark Spector of Sportsnet,

It is the longest winning streak ever authored by a Canadian-based NHL team, and four shy of the NHL record of 17 set by the 1992-93 Penguins.

“It's very cool,” said Oilers goalie Stuart Skinner, who is playing by far the steadiest hockey of his short NHL career. “It's a little bit surprising that it kind of took this long. I mean, there's been so many great Canadian teams that have played.”...

Is this it? Has the final question been answered here, after all these years?

“I guess time will tell,” mused Hyman. “Every year you learn something. You mature. We've had a lot of guys who are on those teams … and when you lose in the playoffs to this Stanley Cup champions two years in a row, you learn from that.”

Nobody was harder on himself and his team than Weegar,

“Battle of Alberta, there wasn’t much battle tonight from us,” said the Flames defender who completed a beauty pass from Coleman for his 10th of the year.

“I thought we got out-competed.

“I thought there would have been a little more pride from us.

“That’s a big game.

“They’re coming into our territory, our city.

“I thought we would have had a little more juice there.”

“Right now that should sting.”
