WICHITA, Kan. - The Tulsa Oilers, proud ECHL affiliate of the NHL's Anaheim Ducks and the AHL's San Diego Gulls, sit 2-2-1-0 on the season after falling to Wichita 4-3 in overtime at INTRUST Bank Arena in Wichita, Kansas on Sunday.

Dylan MacPherson opened the scoring 5:28 into the game, depositing a short-side chance past Daniel Mannella on the power play. The goal marked the first time this season that the Oilers' didn't draw first blood.
