Matheson with several suggestions so far today:
- he expects it should be Mike Smith between the pipes
- he wants Nugent-Hopkins back with Draisaitl and Yamamoto
- in the Matheson plan, Neal plays with McDavid and Kassian on the other top line
- Athanasiou/Sheahan/Archibald and Haas or Russell/Khaira/Chiasson finish his lineup
- he also suggests the Oilers need to be more disciplined.
I agree with the last point anyhow. I can live with juggling lines - although I would prefer not to see Neal & Kassian with McDavid - but my heart sinks if Mike Smith takes the net tonight.

There’s no world I can think of where Kass plays on McD’s wing right now. At least with Arch, 97 has someone he knows will go to the tough areas all night.
There’s been a fair bit of chatter regarding Koskinen v Smith in the media. Several pointing out you can’t blame Koskinen for the deflections, however placing blame on his positioning while going back to game 1 and saying yes, blame Smith for the giveaway goal but the other goals against were due to team play. There’s one major difference between the two goalies, Koskinen’s calm demeanor and Smith’s erratic behaviour.
My mind says we will be hearing Mike Smith’s music.
OGasm’s lineup prognostication;
AA-McDavid-Arch (The A line)
Nuge-Drai-Yam (Please reunite these guys)
Neal-Khaira-Chiasser (can’t break these dudes up)
Haas-Sheahan-Kass (woof, Haas right hand draw helps)
Klef-Lars (NEED to be better)
Nurse-Bear (Nurse needs to elevate, shake it off Bear[fwiw he’s been our best defender these past 3 games])
Russ-Benny (stay disciplined)
Smith (dad mode, engage)
|
I agree with all of your notes here but cant see anyway Smith gets the start. Outside of some desire for a comeback story after game 1 there is no reason to start him. Overall the team was better during the season with Kosk in net.
For the Drai line I think they HAVE to go back to that. The line was the top scoring in all the NHL in for the time it was together.
Find a way to limit the point shots and the Oilers can get back to an even series.
