The Oilers are in the same place on Tuesday as they were Saturday: win, or it’s over. The only differences are that they’re on the road and facing a Florida team looking to bounce back after being embarrassed in Game 4.
Keeping it loose is key for the Oilers: “I think it’s definitely big for us to try and keep it light,” said Dylan Holloway. “You never want to get too wound up. You’ve got to keep it loose. I think we got a bunch of guys in the room that do that.”
With the Oilers on the road, Rogers Place will host the Rogers Road Game Watch Party. Oilers alumni Chris Joseph and Ladislav Smid will be signing autographs inside Rogers Place prior to the 6pm puck drop. Get tickets at EdmontonOilers.com.
Free events this evening include The Ford Tailgate Party in ICE District Plaza and the Scotiabank Fan Park, and Molson Hockey House in Ford Hall (18+). Both events start at 4:30pm.
