Ceci committed to just skating right beside (a bit ahead actually) a forward. That's a dumb play still. At best you've left Nurse with a 2 on 1. He had no good reason to be up there.

Ceci needs a smack. 99% of the time him jumping up is a complete waste, and usually turns into something worse coming our way. His offensive skill is crap, he should not be jumping and gambling up as much as he does. He needs to be the responsible one on his pair if that pair will have any hope. Nurse is never going to be the responsible one, it's not how he plays, and the coaches and his D partner need to be far more aware of it.



Woodcroft also (rightly) called out Foegele's decision on this play too. Yes, horrible decision by the defence to both jump up for no real good reason, but with an odd-man rush, Foegele took a bad angle shot from distance and missed the net by a country mile, starting the breakout for the Canucks.

Pretty terrible decision-making all around on that play, but over the course of the game, the Oilers badly outplayed the Canucks. Generally if you outshoot a team 40-16, you can deal with one bad breakdown in the course of the game. The Oilers didn't allow a lot of chances, never mind 5-bell chances in this game outside of this goal. Sadly, we only got 12 saves all night.



"Thinking that a bad team's best players are the reason the team is bad is the "Tambellini re-signing Lennart Petrell" of sports opinions." @Woodguy55
