The Edmonton Oilers and Andrew Ference had a Saturday night they’re going to want to forget. Though the league has been focused on Toronto and the issues there, the Oilers have once again proved they can’t compete on a nightly basis in the NHL. It looks like another embarrassing year.
The team’s troubles may be best summed up by this Ference blunder. As Ference tried to clear the puck, he accidentally swatted it into his own net. No harm done as Chicago posted five goals of their own.
Ference’s slow and desperate grab for the puck with his glove is almost too sad for words.
