OILERS WOES CONTINUE IN LOSS TO KANSAS CITY

Kansas City defeats Oilers 4-1 on Sunday to even the season series 2-2

TULSA, Okla.— The Tulsa Oilers, proud ECHL affiliate of the NHL’s Anaheim Ducks and the AHL’s San Diego Gulls, and powered by Community Care, lost 4-1 to the Kansas City Mavericks at the BOK Center Sunday afternoon.

Casey Carreau kicked off the scoring roughly halfway through the opening period, hammering a two-on-one one timer past Troy Kobryn to put the Mavericks up 1-0 at the 9:55 mark. Easton Armstrong leveled the game 1-1 with 3:22 left in the frame, ripping his team-leading 10^th goal past a frozen Jack LaFontaine with a wrister from the high slot on the Oilers’ second power play on the afternoon.

Jack Randl found the lone goal of the second period with 5:01 remaining, finishing a doorstep chance following an extended period of Mavericks offensive possession. The Mavericks outshot Tulsa 19-1 in the middle frame.

Jackson Jutting scored his team-leading ninth of the year 6:43 into the final frame, giving Kansas City its first multi-goal lead of the evening. Luke Loheit finished the score 4-1 with 3:56 left, benefiting from a turnover in the trapezoid before roofing Kansas City’s 38^th chance at goal.

Tulsa hosts Tahoe, looking to snap an eight-game losing skid on the season and a franchise-long drought at home against the Knight Monsters at home on Thursday, Dec. 11 at 7:05 p.m.
