Stavanger Oilers took it 8-1 on the road at Lillehammer/Ntg, and the game was effectively settled inside the opening 20 minutes. Three unanswered goals in the first period gave the visitors a cushion they never had to defend under pressure.
The Oilers led 3-0 after one and 4-0 after two, the middle frame a quiet, low-event stretch that suited the side in front. The third period broke open entirely: Stavanger scored four more, and Lillehammer/Ntg's lone goal came in the same period to make it 1-8 in regulation.
The number that frames it is the shutout Stavanger carried into the final period — 40 minutes without conceding, and seven of their eight goals coming before the hosts found the net. Individual scoring details were not available from the match record.
