Tulsa Oilers News Release
ALLEN, Texas - The Tulsa Oilers, proud ECHL affiliate of the NHL's Anaheim Ducks and the AHL's San Diego Gulls and powered by Community Care, defeated the Allen Americans 5-4 in overtime at the Credit Union of Texas Event Center on Friday night.
Jaxsen Wiebe struck the back of the net within the opening minute, deflecting an Olivier Dame-Malka shot past Anson Thronton to put the Oilers up 59 seconds in. Sean Olson whipped a shot from the slot 5:18 later, giving Tulsa a two-goal lead at the 6:17 mark of the period. Conner Roulette earned his first career assist on the strike. Easton Brodzinski cut the Oilers lead to 2-1 with his ninth of the season, a power-play goal, with 2:05 left in the first.
Brayden Watts scored Allen's second goal of a major-penalty power play 2:02 into the second period, tying the game 2-2. Roulette restored the Oilers' lead three minutes later, dancing an Americans' defenseman before beating Thornton with a high-light reel goal at the 5:21 mark. The goal gave Roulette his first multi-point game of his ECHL career. Alec Butcher set the Oilers up 4-2 at the 6:25 mark of the second, driving home a slot from the shot. Spencer Asuchak pulled Allen within one with his fourth of the season with 5:17 left in the frame.
