SAN JOSE, Calif. — As the minutes whittled down to seconds, and then overtime in San Jose against a veteran Sharks club, a wave of concern washed over new coach Ken Hitchcock.
“I was worried,” he admitted, “that it was past my bedtime and I wouldn’t be able to stay up. I don’t think I’ve seen a third period all year out West.”
This third period, and the ensuing overtime, was worth staying up for, as the Oilers erased a 3-2 deficit after 40 minutes then won on Leon Draisaitl’s overtime goal for a 4-3 win.
