The pool may be out of reach now, but Edmonton has fought back to take Game 3 in quite the dramatic fashion. Ryan Smyth scored his only game-winning goal so far in the playoffs to lift the Oilers on home-ice and get themselves back into this Cup Final series. The backup-cum-starting goaltender, Jussi Markkanen had stepped up to make 24 good saves in the Oilers victory... which his two points won't be counted by anyone in the pool.

Game 4 goes tonight on CBC & NBC at 6pm.

Well, it is now definitely unlikely that the 19-point lead for the win will be conquered by the Halos. With only a maxinum of 4 games left in the series and a lead that has grown yet again, the Halos, although they may have already, have settled into their role as second place.
