millbank Posted April 23, 2006 Share Posted April 23, 2006 Edmonton beat Detroit 4- 2 with Micheal Peca having a good game. Series even now heading back to Edmonton. - Brad Winchester was the biggest nobody in the NHL before Sunday. Now he's definitely somebody. Winchester, who failed to stick with the Edmonton Oilers despite call-up after call-up from AHL Hamilton during the regular season, scored the winning goal in his first NHL playoff game Sunday in a 4-2 victory over the Detroit Red Wings. The first-round playoff series is tied at one game each. Edmonton - Detroit Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alaska Darin Posted April 23, 2006 Share Posted April 23, 2006 That was a very good game. Peca was terrific on faceoffs and his "assist" probably changed the complexion of the series. It'll be interesting to see if the Oil can (Oilcan, I kill me) get over their struggles at home. I'm curious to see how Detroit adapts their game to combat Edmonton's borderline illegal neutral zone interference. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
