The Edmonton Oilers took on the Seattle Kraken last night in what was by all accounts a must win for the Oilers early in the season after getting off to one of the worst starts in franchise history.

With the Oilers up 4-1 in the 3rd period, Kraken defender Vince Dunn take Oilers forward Dylan Holloway hard into the boards and although Holloway was slow to get up after the hit, he goes back at Dunn rather hard, forcing him to drop the gloves; take a look.

Vince Dunn and Dylan Holloway get in a fight after Dunn hit Holloway hard into the boards

#SeaKraken | #LetsGoOilers

Holloway showed some serious compete here after getting up from the hit, but he was really no match for Dunn who rag dolled him after taking a few cross checks to the back.

This could be a turning point for the Oilers season and if nothing else they showed more pushback and compete during this game than they have all season. For the fans, one can hope they're about to turn the corner on thd season
