A faceoff win deep in the Oilers zone led to Pulock's goal. Bailey won the puck from Colby Cave and passed to Toews, who dished to Pulock. The defenseman's shot sailed over Koskinen's right shoulder, off the top post and into the net at the 3:02 mark of the second period for a 1-0 lead.

Lee iced the game by scoring with 2:16 left, and Nelson scored an empty-netter 32 seconds later.
