It was their opener and we knew that they were going to keep coming at us. We had some good chances. Salo made some big saves. I thought it was an entertaining hockey game, but it just didn't go our way. Salo finished with 33 saves, including a sliding save with just seconds left in regulation.
Preseason is preseason.
I was feeling good, and the team was playing good in front of me. Oilers captain Doug Weight found winger Bill Guerin at the side of the net and Guerin beat Osgood with a quick shot. But after we took the lead, he was spectacular. Dave Jackson, Brad Meier. Mark Wheeler, Troy Sartison.
