Oscar Klefbom opened the scoring for Edmonton in Game 1 versus the San Jose Sharks, giving the Oilers -- and their fans -- their first playoff goal since 2006.

Klefbom changed that, as his pass in front deflected in off a San Jose defender and through the legs of Martin Jones.
The Oilers went into the intermission with a 2-0 lead after a power play goal from Milan Lucic.
