New Oilers Forward Scores First Goal Since Trade
Adam Henrique scored his first goal since being traded to the Edmonton Oilers.
EDMONTON -- The Edmonton Oilers had a decent trade deadline.
Adam Henrique, Sam Carrick and Troy Stecher were all added to the Oilers roster - with only draft picks getting shipped out.

Carrick has found a way to contribute, already adding two fights to the Oilers side of his resume. The first against the Columbus Blue Jackets and the second tonight against the Montreal Canadiens.
Tonight, Henrique found the back of the net for the first time as an Oiler.
This is a classic case of being in the right place at the right time. With his stick on the ice he's able to tuck the puck into the net on a precise pass from Mattias Ekholm.
That was also Henrique's second point with the Oilers - his first being an assist on Connor Brown's first goal of the season.
We wait to see if this opens the floodgates.
