EDMONTON, AB - The Oilers brought their lunch pails to Rogers Place on Saturday for practice, as the squad looked to recalibrate after their 5-1 loss to Calgary.
The club maintained a high pace at the hour session, emphasizing drills that incorporated skating, backchecking, putting pucks on net and hunting for rebounds.
The team felt it was all necessary to get back into the win column. The Orange & Blue are currently on a two-game losing streak, getting doubled up 4-2 versus the Canucks before being burned by the Flames on Friday.
"Let's face it, our group hasn't been good enough of late," forward Alex Chiasson said.
"I thought today was a step in the right direction. Our compete level was higher and our execution was better."
