They were sure watching for the hand passes though.
The theme of subpar goaltending continues. Smith doesn't look right, and is slotting into the mediocrity that was there in his absence. Tip should have called a timeout prior to the late GTG after icing.
Oilers gave up a ton of big chances in OT and earlier. Smith made some big stops but let in 2 or 3 that shouldn't go in.
The team doesn't look good. It's a gamble to see if they get a bump from a coaching change, but if Holland thinks he's got the horses you have to wonder how much rope Tip has. Clearly Holland doesn't have the goaltending, though, so if might be anticipated that a move comes there at some point.
