The Oilers spent last week playing in two, close home games against the Phoenix Coyotes and Colorado Avalanche.  Although they were unable to come up with a win, plenty of great plays still occurred.  Performances by Magnus Paajarvi, Nikolai Khabibulin, and Jordan Eberle made this week's list of top plays.

Last week, Dubnyk's late save beat out the competition with 45.0% of the votes.  Dubnyk also came in second with his denial against the Penguins with 41.5%, while Khabibulin's save came in third with 13.5% of the votes. Who will win this week? Watch the clips and vote to find out!
