It's been a tale of two periods for the Edmonton Oilers thus far in Game 4 of the Stanley Cup Final.
After surrendering three goals in the first period and replacing starting goaltender Stuart Skinner with backup Calvin Pickard to begin the second period, the Oilers have answered the bell and are now tied 3-3 through 40 minutes.
Veteran forward Ryan Nugent Hopkins got things start for the Oil:
Defenseman Darnell Nurse followed that up with an absolute SNIPE over the shoulder of Florida Panthers goaltender Sergei Bobrovsky:

The Edmonton Oilers have had an absolutely disastrous start to Game 4 of the Stanley Cup Final against the Florida Panthers this evening.
Panthers forward Matthew Tkachuk lit up Oilers goaltender Stuart Skinner for two goals early and Anton Lundell added another to give the Panthers a 3-0 lead after just 20 minutes.
Yeesh...
Skinner has been pulled through 20 minutes and has been replaced by backup Calvin Pickard.
Pardon my language, but this game... just like game 3... has all the makings of an absolute shit kicking this evening. How, how, HOW can the Oilers lay an egg like this for the second game in a row?

Some things never change, I guess.
