When the Oilers played the Avs both times losing to them in OT both time, they didn't have Bjugstad, Ekholm, Kane or Desharnais in their line up. All 4 of those guys are big, physical guys who are all good players. Pretty they are a different team.

Yeah I forgot about the the other 3.. Desharnais really helps in breaking the cycle against Avs big forwards.. more puck retrievals.. the puck will be moving up the ice more frequently.. it'll force Avs to adjust their forecheck pressure.. Suspect Desharnais will get under a lot of Av forward's skins.. which will be fun.

.. plus the Avs will have their hands full with the addition of Kane and Bjugstad, bigger bodies, more physical .. I expect our 3rd line will get some good looks.

It'll be an interesting game.

McDAVID! Oh YEAH Baby!! (Thank you Lord!)
