The series turned on the slash on 29. Draisaitl wasn't close to the same player since that moment and the confluence of events since then with dops and the refs managing games/players emotions as well as the Oilers obviously sensing that they were being jobbed. Credit to Pietrangelo I guess. He won them the series with that play.
Woodcroft deserves a lot of criticism. The decision to continually go back to Skinner was mind boggling. Playoff Skinner was worse than regular season Campbell - the one who apparently made Skinner the unquestionable starter. The idea that Skinner couldn't possibly not start every game without destroying his confidence or ability to come back later in a series/playoff if needed was wild. His inability to create 2 decent lines around 29 and 97 was painful to watch.
Nurse is nowhere close to being a top pairing dman. His gap control and ability to defend/make good decisions are terrible. He doesn't have a chance against the other teams best players. He's probably a #4 but his contract is so absurd that I'm not sure how you fix the defence - Hope the cap goes up a lot I guess.
RNH is RNH. Everyone seems to love him but this is who he is. If they are expecting him to be a difference maker in games that matter they are asking for disappointment.

I would have to disagree with your first point: the series turned when the Knights realized that they just had to play the refs right and stay out of the box. The Oil would have won this series if they could outplay the Knights 5-on-5, but they didn't have the ability. This lack of ability stems from their weaker blue-line group. Look at the 2nd and 3rd goals the Knights scored last night as a microcosm of the Oil's D play all series: poor coverage created by inferior d-men (re: Ceci on both) who don't know how to play in their own end of the ice. I don't fully blame Skinner, because you don't need to have a super-star goalie if the D group in front of him is at least solid in their own zone. With guys like VInnie and Codi, it was a freaking tire fire in their zone too many times to count, as the Knights were able to keep them hemmed in and create opportunities at will.
I don't know what Holland can do to fix this glaring issue, but we need to hope that he can somehow do it, because the team is not going to win a Cup with their blueline as it is. Maybe Brobs will mature into a solid d-man, at which point Ken may only have to find one really good defenceman to shore up their pairings going into next season. Or maybe Klef makes some sort of miraculous recovery and returns to being the guy the Oil leaned on before he went on LTIR.

My cousin (Flames fan) observed that the Knights figured out how to take away the cross ice passes. Which pretty much took Drai out of the scoring equation, and thus the one weapon we were overly dependent upon. On top of just working their butts off and staying out of the penalty box. They knew to just weather the first period, and just stay with it that we'd lose ground and couldn't keep up. They played us to a T.
The rest of the team had no answers 5v5... we weren't banging the crease for greasy goals. Lots of low danger shots from the perimeter.
Illegitimi non carborundum.
