1-1 end of first
O'Sullivan failed to clear the puck on the penalty kill, leading to an Edmonton goal from Jarret Stoll. But O'Sullivan made up for it by taking the puck off the boards in his own zone and racing in to beat Dwayne Roloson in the final minutes. In other news, Dallas leads Phoenix 2-1 at the end of a period.

Isn't it Dwayne Roloson in net for the oil?
Just a minor correction: Roloson is in goal for the Oilers.
He got a good piece of Sully's blast, but still it just overpowered him.
O'sullivan played it right on the kill. He blasted the clearing attempt really hard off the boards but an oiler slammed the board and pinched it in. No real faults there. It was a textbook powerplay goal.
it was Handzus' failure to clear the puck that led to the powerplay, as Handzus was forced to take a penalty to prevent a scoring chance.
sully played it right but the Oil still scored
