Talbot did that despite his wife being scheduled to give birth to twins early Wednesday morning.I knew I had a job to do tonight and that I would feel a lot better tomorrow morning going in there (the hospital) with two points, Talbot said. Personally, I needed a big bounce-back game after the last game I had.It was also big as a team, as we have let those kind of losses snowball in the past and tonight we showed we were more of a resilient group.Jordan Eberle of the Oilers said he was impressed with just how calm and collected Talbot was in the game, including some huge saves in the dying seconds, despite the upcoming additions to his family.I know Cam is very excited, it is a big day for him tomorrow, he said. A lot of the guys have been talking about it. For him to dial it in and play well and make some huge saves and keep us in that game with so much going on in his life, that was impressive.Tyler Pitlick, Anton Slepyshev and Eberle scored for the Oilers, who improved to 3-1-0.Lee Stempniak had two goals for the Hurricanes (0-1-2).We were right there, we had some chances, good chances throughout the game and just never really finished up with them, Stempniak said.Slepyshev unleashed a wicked wrist shot that beat Carolina goalie Cam Ward glove-side for his first career NHL goal 1:51 into the game.Edmonton made it 2-0 midway through the first as Eberles backhanded pass attempt bounced off Hurricanes defender Ron Hainsey and into the net for his third of the season.ddddddddddddPitlick added to the Oilers lead, picking the corner off a faceoff win in the Canes zone.Edmonton goalie Cam Talbot was sharp in making 20 saves through 40 minutes, including outright robbing Jeff Skinner in tight midway through the second period.Carolina finally got on the board three minutes into the third period as a big rebound from a shot by Victor Rask gave Stempniak an empty net to score into, and then made it 3-2 just 56 seconds later as Skinner fed it in front for Stempniaks third of the season.The Hurricanes had some strong pressure late, but Talbot made several big stops and Edmonton was able to hang on for the win.We had too many easy goals against, too many easy chances against, we have to tighten up, Carolina coach Bill Peters said. Usually when were on top of our game and playing to our foundation were a little tighter than that.Game notesBoth teams made changes to their lineups for the game, as Carolina D Jakub Nakladal and LW Phillip Di Giuseppe played their first games of the season, while RW Martin Frk made his NHL debut.
