    The Edmonton Oilers couldn't get a single puck past Jonathan Quick.

    The Edmonton Oilers came out flying in the first period. Ample offensive zone time to go along with numerous chances. By the end of the first frame however, they had only mustered five shots to the New York Rangers 10 shots.

    The biggest story of the game was the battle of the goaltenders - one fighting to keep his team in the game and the other completely closing the door.

    Sometimes you run into a good goalie.

    That is only a microcosm of the issues affecting the Oilers at this point in the regular season. 

    The boos echoed throughout Rogers Place for the last three minutes of the game. The frustration those fans felt tonight must be reflective of how the players feel.

    Ryan Nugent-Hopkins, Darnell Nurse and Zach Hyman all spoke to the media about how everyone needs to elevate their game.

    No one in that dressing room is happy right now.
