I expect a better game, especially from the top 6 and McD specifically. McD was a none factor offensively and went -3. That just can't happen. No team will win when their best player does nothing offensively and is suspect defensively.
I thought the Oilers didn't move the puck overly well on defense. I thought putting in P.Russell made zero sense and he played 12 mins. I know the bottom 6 were better than the top 6 but there is next to no chance he produce offense. The Leafs are not a big, grind it out team. They are a skilled fast team. You don't need a grinder like Russell against the Leafs.
I know with Lagesson out, having 4 dmen in the line up to be on the PK plays a part in Tippett's decisions. Barrie doesn't play on the PK, rookie Bouchard won't and he doesn't trust Jones yet and honestly, I wouldn't either. So that is why unfortunately K. Russell is in until Lagesson is back. So I would either got 11-7 again to help with puck moving or if he wants to go 12-6 because Leon is minorly nicked up and he doesn't want to give him extra minutes, replace P.Russell with either Nygard or Turris. In my opinion, you can't just have a player in your lines who produces nothing but is just "safe". You should be putting guys in who have the potential to make a positive play not just be out there not making a mistake.
