>> Rapid City, SD - The Oilers lost to Rapid City 2-1 on Wednesday in the first of three matchups at Rushmore Plaza Civic Center this week. Charlie Sampair started the scoring 10:43 into the game, tucking the puck underneath the crossbar and over the shoulder of Ivan Prosvetov. The goal came in Sampair's 200th professional game, and was assisted by Brent Gates Jr. and Danny Moynihan. Gage Torrel answered with his second of the year, tipping a point-shot from Eric Israel past Devin Williams at the 14:29 mark of the opening frame. Neither team found the back of the net in the second period, but both teams could find the box. The Oilers took three trips to the box, including a five-on-three in the final minutes of the period. The final frame remained deadlocked until Peter Quenneville crammed a rebound into the net with 4:35 remaining to seal the Rush victory.

>> Rapid City, SD - The game was more than halfway over when Gage Torrel kicked off the scoring, tallying his second goal in as many nights 11:03 into second period. The goal was the lone goal of the period, and was assisted by Giovanni Fiore and Peter Quenneville. Danny Moynihan knotted things up 3:29 into the final period, sneaking the puck past Ivan Prosvetov on the short side with an odd-angle shot. Robby Jackson gave the Oilers their first lead of the game, popping in a back-door rebound a little more than three minutes later. Jared Thomas extended the Tulsa lead to 3-1 on a power play at the 11:08 mark, blasting a slap shot from the circle shot 18 inches off the ice and into the back of the net. Quenneville answered quickly, slashing the deficit to one when he crashed the net, steering Trey Phillip's feed from the wall and past Evan Fitzpatrick. Keeghan Howdeshell spoiled the Oilers' lead with an extra-man, last-minute goal, sliding the puck into the net off a net-mouth scramble, knotting the game at 3-3 with 46 seconds left. Tulsa had a couple of early chances in the extra period, but eventually fell when Quenneville sprung Tyler Coulter on a breakaway that ended with a backhand tuck past a sprawling Fitzpatrick. The Oilers will play Rapid City one more time this week, squaring off against the Rush at the Rushmore Plaza Civic Center tomorrow. The Oilers will face rival Wichita the following Wednesday before hosting Allen on Nov. 30.

Saturday, Nov. 16- Tulsa 2, Rapid City 3 (Rushmore Plaza Civic Center - Rapid City, SD)| Box Score

>> Rapid City, SD - Tyler Coulter, last night's overtime hero, opened the scoring 5:33 into the game, walking down the goal line before roofing a backhander on the power play. The Oilers then killed off a five-minute power play that resulted from a major penalty assessed to Ryan Tesink 7:50 into the game. Danny Moynihan responded roughly 11 minutes later, tapping a right wing feed from Charlie Sampair past Tyler Parks 16:30 into the game.

Peter Qunneville ended the deadlock with a top corner missile over the shoulder of rookie goaltender Olle Eriksson Ek 5:18 into the middle frame. Tyler Coulter extended the Rush lead to 3-1, burying an opportunity created by a defensive-zone turnover at the 14:24 mark of the second period.

Steven Ruggiero painted the corner above Parks' right shoulder, bringing the game within one 4:34 into the final frame, but his early third period goal wouldn't be enough to spark a comeback. With the victory, the Rush advanced to 8-0-0-0 on home ice, the only team to remain undefeated at home.
