Nail Yakupov got the celebrations started with a pin-point shot Wednesday.
The Edmonton Oilers forward opened the scoring against the Vancouver Canucks midway through the second period of the final game at Rexall Place.
Yakupov took it upon himself to gather the puck with the chance that it could be the final goal scored at the Oilers home rink. Patrick Maroon would strike just under five minutes later, however.
