Makar Strikes Twice: Oilers in a Hole Early Against Avalanche

Edmonton Needs a Quick Response as Avalanche Take Early Control

Period 1 has come to an end! The Edmonton Oilers are down 2‑0 against the Colorado Avalanche, and Cale Makar is making it look way too easy. His first goal flew past Stuart Skinner, and before Edmonton could catch their breath, Makar fired another wicked shot that entered then net with precision. For fans, it’s that frustrating mix of “how did that happen?” and “we’ve got to bounce back—fast.”

Makar has been at the heart of it, picking spots and firing shots with surgical precision.

Oilers Down but Not Out: Time to Rally

The clock is ticking, but one good sequence can turn this around. This isn’t the first time the Oilers have faced an early hole, and it won’t be the last. Fans know this team has the firepower to respond, and patience is crucial. The Avalanche have the lead, Makar’s on fire, but Edmonton has shown they can dig in and fight back. There’s still time to swing the momentum, and that’s exactly what Oilers fans are hoping for.
