It's safe to say that Edmonton Oilers forward Jordan Eberle has shaken off all of his early season rust.
Eberle took advantage of a turnover by New York Rangers captain Ryan McDonagh, and showed great patience on a breakaway opportunity before lifting the puck in tight over Henrik Lundqvist for the game-tying goal on Tuesday.
After scoring just three goals in the first 13 games of the season following a shoulder injury, Eberle has been on absolute fire during the Oilers' six-game winning streak:

The 25-year-old now has eight goals and three assists in 19 games.
