The Tulsa Oilers picked up their 3rd straight win to open the season Thursday morning, beating the Allen Americans 8-2 at the BOK Center. Alec Butcher and Sasha Pastujov each scored a pair of goals in the victory.

Alec Butcher snagged the first goal of the morning, finishing a cross-zone feed from Jack Clement past Dylan Wells 5:11 into the action. Conner Roulette tucked his first professional goal 3:05 into the middle frame, extending the Oilers’ lead to two. Sasha Pastujov nailed his first of the day seven seconds before the mid-way mark of the game, giving the Oilers a 3-0 lead. Butcher made it a 4-0 game with 6:47 remaining in the period, spinning home a rebound off a Kylor Wall shot. Tyler Poulsen set the score 5-0 heading into the second intermission, potting a power-play goal — his fourth total on the season. Former Oiler Kyle Crnkovic scored Allen’s first of the season, wiring a power-play wrister beyond the blocker of Vyacheslav Buteyets one minute into the third period. Allen cut the score to 5-2 with a strange-bounce goal from Artyom Kulakov. Pastujov restored a four-goal edge with a highlight-reel goal, dancing the Allen defender before roofing an in-tight shot above Wells 8:48 into the third period. Ruslan Gazizov scored a highlight reel goal of his own 35 seconds later, going between his legs to net the Oilers’ seventh. Austin Albrecht finished the score line 8-2, burying a feed from Justin Michaelian with 7:03 remaining to give both players three-game point streaks and the Oilers’ their first short-handed goal of the year.

Tulsa is now 3-0-0-0 on the season, and leads the ECHL's Western Conference with 6 points. Tulsa has outscored its opponents 19-4 in this 3-game winning streak.

The Oilers travel on the road for the first time this season, heading to INTRUST Bank Arena in Wichita, Kansas to take on the Thunder at 7:05 p.m. Friday night. The same two teams return to Tulsa and will meet at the BOK Center at 7:05 p.m. on Saturday.
