Not that time, as Pietrangelo will be in the box to start the 3rd.

Everyone wants to make the star play and it keeps dying or turning over.

Keep it simple. Win some puck battles. The talent will come out.

He tries to keep it light, but his harmless wit always seems to come out wrong. I actually felt for him on one occasion.

Draisaitl saw what Pavelski did yesterday and was like “I can do that”

Edit: looks like it’s be complete with the loss too.

I think Dr Drai was thinking more like, "Hold my beer.", as he just needs 1 more to better Joe's performance from last night.

It's a one-timer, but I don't love Skinner on that goal.

And yeah - giving 73 the next shift after goals seems a mistake. Actually, giving him shifts period isn't great.

Now we're going to need two hat tricks from Leon.

Skinner probably should have had it, but Nurse and Bouch gave way too much room to Stevenson for that shot.

Geez Woody, you're playing 3D chess, smiling like a Cheshire cat in your pressers, trouble is the other team is playing 4D.

Can't say I was expecting this performance from the team tonight. Guess we gotta hope Vegas takes a ton of penalties in this series.

Jaysus. If Lil Joe can do it then so can I?

Ignoring Drai's beast mode though, we're playing like garbage. What happened to the tight defensive team that we saw over the last 20 games of the season?

Give the Knights a little credit, as they came out playing hard, much like a team that got the most rest time thanks to playing the shortest first round series. The Oil need to make the appropriate adjustments for the next game including replacing Janmark and his terrible luck.

That depends on whether Woody puts Vinnie out on the next shift after such an event.

Quietly, Hyman's been awful tonight. Maybe one of the worst games I've seen him play. Lots of turnovers, bad decisions, etc.

We need someone not named Leon to step up now.

Hyman has not been himself all playoffs. We still have some serious winger issues. Nuge just seems permanently flustered at 5v5. Hyman and Kane, guessing they both have some kind of injury? Yams struggling a lot outside of a great shot.

McDavid and Drai the only guys that have consistently been able to do things 5v5, and tonight McDavid is off, so it's mainly Drai.

Welp, did not deserve to win that one at all. If it wasn't for Drai's heroics this would have been a (deserved) spanking.

Smarten up & come back ready to play for game 2

It’s pretty handy that game 1 is the least important game.
