We defended well tonight,” Halak said.Halak didn’t allow anything past him after McDavid blew through the Boston defense and slipped one in at 3:43 for his first goal of the season.Cam Talbot had 28 saves for Edmonton and kept it close, but the Oilers never recovered after Boston took control in the first.“We had a couple that were inches away Jason Zucker Jersey ,” Edmonton’s Ryan Nugent-Hopkins said. “We’ve just got to keep pushing through that.”The Oilers were playing only their second game of the season after falling 5-2 to New Jersey on Saturday in Sweden.“We didn’t create a lot of offense and when we finally did, the bounces didn’t go our way,” Edmonton coach Todd McLellan said. “I thought we had the start that we wanted to have.”Patrice Bergeron added an empty-netter in the final minute and finished with a goal and an assist. Defenseman Matt Grzelcyk had a pair of assists for the Bruins.

Nordstrom scored again for Boston 36 seconds later on a give-and-go with Krejci.“It was really important that we got the next two goals Joel Eriksson Ek Jersey ,” Pastrnak said.Edmonton just missed on two opportunities in the third. Boston captain Zdeno Chara poked the puck away after a shot by Nugent-Hopkins slid along the goal line behind Halak as Edmonton’s Ty Rattie raised his arms, thinking Edmonton had scored.
