3 least impressive Edmonton Oilers players from OT loss to Vancouver Canucks

#3 Jake Wallman

The Edmonton Oilers blueliner had a less-than-impressive game, failing to register a single point in over 19 minutes of ice time. He hit the ice for 23 shifts, without getting a shot on goal or a blocked shot.

However, it was Jake WallmanThe terrible gift that led to the first goal of the game. Here's a look:

Walman's layup pass barely went through, allowing the Canucks to clear the puck. To make matters worse, the Oilers with a line change in the middle, allowing the Canucks to finish again with Boeser getting the goal.

#2 Matthias Ekholm

Kiefer Sherwood made head-turning moves on Ekholm on Sunday night at No. 14. Here's a look at the goal:

Sherwood split the D as he made a sick move on Ekholm to strip him in front of the net. Sherwood capped off the clever move by beating Pickard to make it 3-1. Although the Oilers would come back to tie the game, the goal nonetheless put the team in a tough spot.

#1 Calvin Pickard

The Oilers goalie didn't have an atrocious game. However, he was not up to the task when his team needed him most. In particular, Pickard he allowed goals that were somehow achieved.

For example, Pettersson's power play goal came from a sharp angle that somehow went wide. Here's a look:

The shot came from a decent angle. However, he was too far on the short side and still beat Pickard even though he passed in time. It was a goal that a positionally solid goalkeeper could have stopped.

Still, Pickard deserves some credit for keeping the game close for the Oilers as the team rallied in the third period.

The Oilers will return to the ice on Tuesday night as they host the Utam Mammoth at Rogers Place.
