They got it done. Sens came out freaking hard but the Oilers were the better team and they pulled it out again. The fact they have beat the Sens 8 times in a row is pretty incredible. Yes the Oilers are a better team talent wise but to never have the Sens goalie even though they aren't that good, play out of his mind for 1 game because it does happen. The Sens have done it against the Leafs a few times. Or the Oilers just get unlucky 1 game because they happen as well. 1 more to go.
Leon and McD were incredible.
I thought Koskinen was excellent. He made some BIG saves especially late in the game.
That Nuge line, I don't think you can play it in the playoffs. Just too small. They got pushed around a bit, didn't generate much. I don't think you can run those 3 together in the playoffs. Kahun doesn't seem to be able to do anything unless Leon is setting him up. Yamo DRILLED a guy. I can only imagine what would have happened to that guy if Yamo wasn't so small.
The defense was just meh. I don't know what the deal with Jones is but he's playing himself off the team. He wasn't totally brutal last night but he wasn't very good. If you can't look good against a bottom feeder team even though they do try hard, when will you ever. I don't like the Jones - Bear pairing.
I think Barrie is banged up. He did take several nasty hits, falls, kicks to the face last week. So how could he not be.
