Edmonton Oilers look to close out Los Angeles Kings in Game 6
The Edmonton Oilers have the upper hand in their playoff series with the Los Angeles Kings.A commanding 6-3 win over the visiting Kings in Tuesday’s Game 5 at Rogers Place gave Edmonton its first lead of the best-of-seven, first-round series.A three-day break between the fifth and sixth games afforded both teams a day of rest Wednesday.
“There’s positives to this schedule. The first thing is it allows you to refill the cup. It allows you to nurse bumps and bruises, but the other team gets that opportunity as well. It’s who handles it better.” “We got three days here to kind of think about what we did well. You’ve got to have a short memory if you lose and I think it’s the same if you win. You’ve just got to have a new-day mentality. Be good at practice and getting good sleep, good rest here.
The Oilers have scored 11 goals over their last five periods and 10 minutes of overtime, after they fell behind 3-0 in the first period of Game 4. “Our team has been preparing for a very difficult first round, whoever the opponent was going to be. We tried to use the 82-game schedule to set us up, to prepare ourselves,” Woodcroft said.
