Pierre LeBrun

Obviously, with the postseason here, is there any team that has come out of the regular season here that has really been a shock to you?

All righty, that is Pierre Lebrun.

We are going to step away one more time, and when we come back, we'll have this day in Oilers history.

And Brendan and Scott will join us for a crossover.

You're listening to Oilers Now.

This is Darnell Nurse from your Edmonton Oilers, and you're listening to Oilers Now with Bob Soffer on 880 Chet.

This day in Oilers history is brought to you by New West Travel, your local travel experts.

On this day in 1988, Marty McSorley gets five in a game for spearing, but Mark Messier registers three assists and Wayne Gretzky has a pair of his own to lead the Oilers past the flames.

Four to two in game three of the Smite Division Finals at Northlands.

That gave them a three to nothing series lead.

I hear the Oilers were pretty good in the 80s.

I wouldn't know.

Brennan S. Scott has Inside Sports up next.

Brennan, how you doing, man?

Now the people can hear me.

I appreciate that, man.

What did you think of the game yesterday?

Yeah, I've been harping on it all day.

It just seems like the Ducks really, really put that on the top list of priorities of things that they needed to have handled before this series got started.

And so far, so good on their side of things.
