I think whoever wins this game wins the series.
Hoping to see everything improve over last game as it was pretty bad across the board outside of the PP.
This talk of the goalie being undecided better be a smokescreen and we see Smith stapled firmly to the bench
Reunite RNH with Yamo and Drai. It didnt boost McDavids line at at all and Drai's line looked much worse.
Lastly, when the Hall/Larsson deal i, the Kassian contract, even Russell still being on the team, are defended it is because you "need guys like that in the playoffs". Time for the them to show it. I will say though that Russell may have had the best game of any Oiler on Sat, at least relative to expectations.

I would just add to that the coaching needs to be better. Tippett needs to be the smartest guy in the building, not the most stubborn. In the past we've seen coaches like Todd McLellan and Dallas Eakins destroy team chemistry by sticking with faulty game plans.
Maybe Ken Hitchcock can help in his role as team advisor.
