Edmonton Oilers' site editor Caleb Kerney talks about Cody Ceci & Brett Kulak's need to improve limiting high danger chances against their goaltenders. It's Friday and the Edmonton Oilers have only played one game this week. They play their second game tomorrow night, at home against the Ottawa Senators. Stuart Skinner.

The main reason why they haven't played any other games is they had their own Skills Competition last night. It was a fun event for fans of all ages to attend. It featured your standard Skills Competition events such as fastest skater, accuracy challenge and hardest shot. The most fun event had to have been the Ruff Ruff Relay - where dogs of Oilers players raced against each other in individual heats (similar to fastest skater). Ryan McLeod.

Ryan McLeod won fastest skater. Ryan Nugent-Hopkins and Leon Draisaitl were the final two for the accuracy challenge. Nugent-Hopkins ultimately won that challenge. The biggest surprise for this writer, came from the hardest shot competition. Evan Bouchard's hardest recorded slap shot in a game this year is 100.48 mph. Cody Ceci's slap shot clocked in at 102.9 mph. Cody Ceci. [https://thehockeynews.com/.image/c_fit,h_600,w_600/MjAzNDI2MjM0MDA3Mjk5NDIw/usatsi_22204012_168401874_lowres.jpg] Cody Ceci. Forget the Bouch-bomb, the Ceci-bomb is something else. All jokes aside, it's nice to see that if there was ever an injury to Bouchard, Ceci could slam a slap shot from the point on the power play.
