lol those highlights of oilers fallling all over the place.
I think that's just called being panicky chokers.

14 shots thru 2. Down 2. Inexplicable.
The 3rd is for the series.

I realize he’s young. But look at the other young defencemen on the Kings team?
I don’t know WTH is wrong with this guy, but he is hot garbage as a defender right now.

I think the Oilers have done a poor job of putting their young and secondary players in positions to succeed until they’re expected to succeed. Bouchard is a great example of this. I do think it’s get better, largely thanks to Woodcroft in Bako and here, but it does suggest an organizational issue to me.

Kassian leads the team with 3 SOG thru 2, Nuge has 2, so that's 9 left for everyone else.

79% of teams that win game 5 when the series is tied, go on to win the series.
This period could be it.

If Draisaitl isn’t hurt, he isn’t trying.
Entire defence is a nightmare.

Exactly. He fails on BASIC defensive play. He looks like a guy who missed 3 years in the AHL learning how to play defense.. which he is. What amazes me is that he's been through a two NHL defense coaches.. which I'm sure have told him what his problems are.. and still doesn't seem to be catching on.
Same with McLeod, still doing big loops without engaging.. doesn't stop on pucks.. I even heard Woody say that was a problem they had been trying to get out of McLeod's game back when he was coaching in Bako.. stopping on pucks and engaging.. he still refuses to to do it.

Damn. Guess when you only start trying with 1/5th of a game left you risk that some bad luck could kill your momentum and you'll run out of time

Well on the bright-side, at least the contracts for McLeod, Yamo, and JP won't be more than their qualifying offers.

McDavid just put the team on his shoulders in that period and brought us back. Let's go again.... I would say it's time for a drink to calm my nerves, but 6am is a bit too early to start drinking

At the least I don't think we will play only 7 players in OT. Hope the effort level stays up.
