"Full team effort. I don't think there was a guy that took a shift off. We knew that was a good team coming in... We had to play together, and we needed everybody. Ghost went down early, so as a whole team, we had to step up and fill in for that."

No update on Shayne Gostisbehere (lower-body injury) from Rod Brind'Amour post-game.

The blue line's leading scorer has already missed 17 games over three stints this season related to a lower-body injury.

W!

On a day when management showcased their belief in the current roster, the #Canes go into Edmonton and take a 6-3 victory.

Nikolaj Ehlers put home his 20th goal of the season, Jackson Blake set a new career-high with his 18th (and 19th), and K'Andre Miller had three assists.

The #Canes add another for good measure!

Jackson Blake's second of the night makes it a 6-3 contest with 28 seconds left.

Jordan Staal hits the empty net!

The #Canes go up 5-3 with 1:21 to go in regulation.

Zach Hyman's second of the night brings Edmonton back within one once again.

It's a power play goal to make it 4-3 with 8:17 on the clock.

Jackson Blake's got a new career-high with 18 goals. 👏

That was the best sequence we've seen from the team with their goalie pulled in a very long time.

K'Andre Miller's setup couldn't have been placed better.

The #Canes have their two-goal lead back!

Jackson Blake strikes during a delayed penalty to make it 4-2.

40 minutes down, 20 (o̶r̶ m̶o̶r̶e̶) to go. 3-2, #Canes.

Jordan Martinook's early-period insurance marker proved to be huge.

Thanks to this beautiful dish, Nikolaj Ehlers has five points in his last four periods of hockey. 💪

Vasily Podkolzin brings Edmonton back within one.

It's 3-2 with 16:40 remaining in the second period.

Ehlers catches everyone leaning and looking to the far side, but places it perfectly back on Martinook's tape.

Always great to see a guy get a goal in his hometown game.

The #Canes add to their lead to start the second period!

Jordan Martinook stuffs home a phenomenal pass from Nikolaj Ehlers.

3-1.

Done with 20 minutes in Edmonton. 2-1, #Canes.

Great pushback after surrendering the first one.

Another prime example of the #Canes scoring in succession.

Shayne Gostisbehere earns his 43rd point in his 45th game, and Nikolaj Ehlers hits the 20-goal mark for the ninth time in 11 seasons.

Put pucks on net and good things happen!

Jordan Martinook does a good job drawing attention in the slot.

That's Ehlers' 20th of the season.

Another one!

Nikolaj Ehlers, who had a hat trick on Wednesday, continues his scoring streak and puts the #Canes in front for the first time tonight.

2-1.

An absolute laser.

Nice job by Sebastian Aho to win the battle along the wall, eventually allowing the puck to get to the blueliner.

Shayne Gostisbehere answers right back for Carolina!

Just 37 seconds after the game-opening goal, it's a 1-1 game.

Zach Hyman opens the scoring for Edmonton with 9:17 remaining in the first period.

Mark Jankowski draws back in as the #Canes battle the Oilers -

Svechnikov - Aho - Jarvis
Hall - Stankoven - Blake
Ehlers - Staal - Martinook
Carrier - Jankowski - Robinson

Slavin - Chatfield
Miller - Walker
Gostisbehere - Nikishin

The #Canes indeed go with Frederik Andersen tonight in Edmonton.

He's 18-3-3 with a .922 SV% against the Oilers over the course of his career.

tough; we're one of the best teams in the league right now. Teams are making deals to try to catch us, and to try to catch the teams that are ahead of them, and that is us.

On one side, it would be nice to throw your chips in and see if you could improve your team, but we love the group (2/3)

Now that the trade deadline has come and gone, /hannaRyates got Rod Brind'Amour's thoughts on the whole situation.

It was an interesting answer from the head coach.

"I know there's a lot of disappointment, I'm going to be honest. (The players) were hoping to see us make a splash. It's (1/3)

Rod Brind'Amour on bringing Nic Deslauriers in:

"I've really liked this guy for a long time because I know his character. He's a great teammate, first and foremost. He hasn't played much, but we do know what he does bring when he's in the lineup, and that's that he's super tough. He (1/2)

front. When we have injuries, we have guys who we know can play. We actually have guys in the AHL who we are going to be looking for opportunities to get them into the lineup. A lot of the moves that happened out there today were teams trying to add the depth that we already have..." (2/2)
