Oilers earn slick win over Senators
Posted on November 29, 2010
Martin Gerber endured some shaky times in Ottawa, but he was rock solid Monday night against his former team.
Gerber stopped 22 of the 23 shots he faced from the Senators to help his Edmonton Oilers get their eastern Canada road trip off on the right foot with a 4-1 victory.
"It's definitely nice to have this one," Gerber said. "It's always emotional to play somewhere you've been around for a while and it was really great to see the guys out there compete and, for most of the game, we had a good game."
Andrew Cogliano scored the go-ahead goal early in the third period, then set up Gilbert Brule for another as the Oilers (7-12-4) came from behind and won for the second time in three games.
