I took my youngest to the game. I thought the Oilers were the better team for 50 mins.
I thought McD except for the 2 shifts where he drew the 2 penalties in a row played pretty poor. The amount of open looks he passed up was enraging. You are the Rocket Richard winner this year, shoot the f-ing puck! It says he had 5 shots but he passed up some absolutely wide, wide open looks. McD was -2 and yup, he deserved to be.
I thought McD's whole line was quiet. Physically Hyman was doing well but generated nothing offensive. I didn't even know Nuge played.
Leon's line was great especially Leon. They were unlucky not to get another one.
Bjugstad's line was effective. Unlucky not to get a goal.
The 4th line looked decent except McLeod. I didn't notice McLeod at all then I look at his stat line and I see why. Pretty much zeros across the board.
I thought the defense was decent. Bouchard had a good game except for the penalty. Can't take that penalty. Big time mistake.
I thought Skinner was just OK. Didn't really have to make a big save. I didn't like the 3rd goal to tie the game.
Korpisalo kept the Kings in it.
I thought the refs played a HUGE role in the game. First period I think it was Foegele got a goal called back for goalie interference. Did he hit into the goalie that probably helped the goal? 100% yes. But I would like to know from the league, what was he supposed to do? He was driving the net to go after the puck which is allowed and part of the game. A Kings player from behind jumps on his back and drives him to the ice into his goalie. So you penalize the Oilers player for being unable to support a 200+ lbs King defender laying on his back? I am fine with the goal being called back, I just would like to hear for future situations, what you expect a person to do in that situation so it counts next time. The answer can't be there is nothing you can do, just accept it.
What bothered me about the refs isn't that the Oilers took penalties. Some were pretty soft but it's once again the non calls that were definitely on display in OT. I think it was Leon who got dragged to the ice in the offensive zone behind the net. He's skating, King reaches out grabs his arm and pulls him down. I think Foegele was dumped behind the net. I can't remember which Oiler got drilled in the back. On Desharnais's penalty. The King player helped pull him to the ice. So he's skating full speed, gets dragged down, falls and as he is falling because he's 6'6, there is stick and body everywhere and his stick clips his skate which the King made damn sure to go down. So you let a whole wack of stuff go all game, then in OT, you call a game deciding ticky tack call.
I am not too worried. Like I said, I thought the Oilers were the superior team. They just need to clean up a few easy things and stop with the show time on offense.
