I thought the Oilers were surprisingly passive on the physical end. I am not sure if the Oilers were worried about taking penalties. I am not looking for them to run around looking for hits to put themselves out of position but the Canucks were running around at times and I am surprised the Oilers didn't respond.
Kane - 4 hits. He did some but I thought he would run around more being in his home town, the Canucks wanting to hit and scrum it up.
Perry - 2 hits. The Canucks were scrumming it up. That's his game. I thought he would be in the goalies face all night.
Janmark - 0 hits - Not his game I get it but this is playoffs. I didn't think he was awful, he wasn't a drag on McD like I saw some people on twitter saw. Janmark on the line doesn't stop McD from skating or shooting. But he didn't do anything to get out of his comfort zone or stand out.
Brown - 1 hit. Really disappointed with him. I got into it with a poster that as a fan base, we should be wanting all players to do well, not hoping for them to fail like the poster was. But I was surprised at how quiet he was. You sat all the first round. If you want to stay in the line up, you need to get out of your comfort zone and play a little desperate to stay in the line up and he didn't at all.
The biggest shockers, the d core.
Nurse - ZERO hits. 6'4 215 skates really well, not scared to mix it up. I have said it before, I don't think a dman can do their job properly without having to hit at least some. The nature of the position calls for 1 on 1 battles and retrieving pucks in the corners which are contact areas.
Ceci - See above. I don't know how you have zero hits as a dman.
Ekhlom - 1 hit. You are a huge, physically imposing man who's has some offense but is more about defense. How do you only hit 1 time, especially given your partner is the exact opposite of you, the supreme offensive guy.
Kulak - I know it's not your game to run around but zero hits. Come on. You are in the 3rd pairing, you don't score a ton. He should have at least a couple.
Desharnais - 1 hit. I like Vinnie. I love his story and how hard he works to improve but dude, you aren't in the NHL because you score goals, blazing skater and move the puck. You are there to clear the net front, block shots, defend, and your size. 1 hit is unacceptable. If you aren't getting more, then what are you doing out there?
Bouch - 2 hits. Good for you and I am serious. You aren't out there to hit. Like I said the nature of the dman position I think requires some physical play but I don't expect a ton from you. You lead the d core in hits which is embarrassing and I don't mean it as a shot at Bouch, it's a shot at the rest especially Nurse, Ceci, Ekholm and Desharnais. I am not looking for every dman to have 10 hits but if you are engaged in the game and going after it like you should, no dman should have zeros.
