Oilers Defeated by Komets, 2-1
February 27, 2016 - ECHL (ECHL)
Tulsa Oilers News Release
Fort Wayne, IN - The Tulsa Oilers were handed their third straight loss on Saturday night when the Fort Wayne Komets defeated them 2-1.
A hooking minor by former Oiler, Randy Cure, was the most action the first period saw. Tulsa outshot the Komets 10-7 but neither would get on the board.
The second frame was sweet to Fort Wayne as they took a lead and then doubled it. Two goals, four minutes apart, found the back of Jussi Olkinuora. First, defenseman Jordon Southorn would tally his sixth of the season with help from Mason Baptista and Cody Corbett. A Jamie Schaafsma goal followed.
A late third period rebound by Phil Brewer would cut the Komet's lead in half with six minutes left. Adam Pleskach put the puck on net and Pat Nagle stopped it but he couldn't stop Brewer.
Despite last minute efforts from the Oilers, Fort Wayne would prevail and take the contest 2-1.
The Oilers head to Evansville next Friday and Saturday to visit the IceMen for the second and third time this season.
