Edmonton Oilers lost 6-3 to the Flyers in Philadelphia on Saturday afternoon .

The Flyers capitalized on Edmonton ’s bad puck management, anemic offence and game-killing giveaways.

Coach Kris Knoblauch : “What really cost us were the turnovers, trying to make plays when there is not a play to be made”.

Matt Savoie set up Leon Draisaitl's 41st of the season in the first period .

The 21-year-old is shaping up to be a smooth-skating puck mover who can get the biscuit to Edmonton 's offensive forwards.

The Oilers coach Mike Knoblauch was pleased with his debut in just his second NHL game.
