Even though we let in 3 goals in that second period, we looked in control of the game totally dominating the puck in there end. I was so impressed by the response after the time out. Last year and years gone by this team would have collapsed, mentally they seem a lot tougher.
As for the third, once we'd ran Rinne out of the net, we seem to let off the gas would have liked us to rack up a double figure scoreline, but it wasn't to be. As it's been said McDavid with 5 points isn't being mentioned at all. That's now 13 points in five games since coming back for McDavid, looks like he's trying to catch Leon, but Leon keeps scoring as well. He's now back up into second place and only 6 away from 100. Rightly Leon is getting the plaudits for his play, but how McDavid constantly returns from injuries and carries on scoring at the same level he did prior to the injuries I don't know.

You are mildly complaining that the Oilers after pumping in 8 goals, didn't keep it full throttle and go for 10?
McD and Leon ended up with only 18 mins and 17:57 respectively in ice time. Which means they basically sat their first and second lines for the last 10 mins of the 3rd which is why they "took their foot off the gas". At least for me, when you have a laugher of a game and you can with 100% no concern give McD and Leon rest time, you take it. For the betterment of the team long term, the Oilers need McD and Leon as rested and HEALTHY as possible for the playoffs. So I don't need to see McD or Leon being thrown out there every second or 3rd shift when you are up by 5 just to try for 10 goals and risk someone on the other team who's already embarrassed for getting their ass kicked that bad on home ice, get more upset the Oilers are trying to run it up and say give either of those 2 a cheap shot. No thanks.
