  • Welcome!  This is the “OilersNerdAlert” format statistical breakdown for this game.  Beer League Heroes will be publishing these state of the art analyses for each of the Final games.
  • This was an exciting game. Hope they’re all this intense!
  • The Sharks are my designated #2 team, since I have family and friends down in Silicon Valley, so … boo. Also the game information below is from the Sharks point of view.  If you’re a Penguins fan and want to see the breakdown from a PIT point of view, please comment and we’ll be happy to add a second gamepage.
  • The score ended up being (and following) the gameflows pretty much exactly – which happens less often than you’d think!
  • My man BLH is choked that Justin Schultz isn’t wearing #19, so he could make up a half and half jersey shirt. Even as a Penguin, Jultz frustrates Oiler fans!
