The Edmonton Oilers kicked off their NHL preseason in style - edging out the Winnipeg Jets 3-2 in overtime.

Although the Oilers elite players didn't dress for the occasion, hockey fans got a great glimpse of the future of the team.

According to the Edmonton Journal, Cam Dineen got the winner in the 3-on-3 after a crushing hit by Vasily Podkolzin deep in the Oiler end, then the set-up to the farmhand D.

Although it was a nice goal by the Oilers prospect, its definitely one Winnipeg Jets goaltender Eric Comrie would like to have back. Eric Comrie was acquired by the Jets from the Buffalo Sabres during the offseason as has his eyes set on being the back up for Connor Hellebuyck.

The other Oiler goals came from 2024 first-round draft centre Sam O'Reilly (breakaway pass from Dineen) and farmhand Raphael Lavoie on a power play ripper from 30 feet that beat Eric Comrie, pretty much Lavoie's playground after 14 of his 28 goals in Bakersfield last season came on the PP for the Oilers farm club.

Olivier Rodrigue, who will share Bakersfield goalie duties with Collin Delia, had a shake-your-head start, giving up a goal on the first shot of the game, 17 seconds in, when David Gustafsson tipped Logan Stanley's shot home. Delia surrendered a quick shot by Dominic Toninato, shortly after Lavoie's goal in the third period.


The Oilers will be looking to keep their momentum going ahead of tonight's Battle of Alberta. The team will be playing a split squad match up against the Flames - one game being held at Rogers Place, and another at the Scotia Bank Saddledome.
