VANCOUVER 6, EDMONTON 4

VANCOUVER, British Columbia (AP) - Bert Robertsson scored two goals while Todd Bertuzzi added one goal and two assists as the Vancouver Canucks beat the Edmonton Oilers 6-4 in an exhibition game Saturday night. Dave Scatchard, Brent Sopel and Bill Muckalt also scored for the Canucks (3-2). Josef Beranek scored two goals while Valeri Zelepukin and Kevin Brown each added one for the Oilers (1-5-1). It was a fight-filled game that saw both starting goaltenders, Garth Snow and Steve Passmore, ejected and 110 minutes in penalties called in the first period alone. After Zelepukin scored at 15:37 an all-out brawl took place in the Canucks zone. Less than two minutes later, a second brawl began, this time when both goalies left their crease and went toe-to-toe at center ice.
