On the bright side, I think that was about as good as the Kings can play, plus they got even more fortunate bounces. On the other hand, that wasn't even close to as good as we can play.
Let's get that one back next game. We'll be better.

I was going to say the same thing.
The Kings came out as if it was a game 7. They played hard.
I thought Bouchard didn't play well. First goal, he has complete control. He's the best puck mover by a mile on the team. He has a winger ready for the pass. He does a soft bank for some reason that is way too far and the puck gets turned over. That has to be a tape to tape but he wasn't trying to do that.
Second goal, I thought was awful on him. Good hand eye but Bouch is right beside Kempe. Just tie him up!! Instead he tries to bat the puck out of the air.
Before people get on me. This is not me bashing him. I like him, he does a ton good. For the Oilers, he touches the puck a ton and when he is off, it impacts them a lot and usually causes goals against. He wasn't good last night and factored in the loss big time. He will learn from it and be better next game.
I didn't love McD's game. 6 pts in 2 games looks great. But 5 of them were in the first game and they are all assists. The Kings were clearly keying on him and surrounding him trying to cut off the pass. I really hope someone like Leon or maybe Hyman talks to him and tells him while they really appreciate the passes, he has to shoot some. He's not a threat hardly at all right now to shoot the puck. He had 1 shot last night and he was trying to force passes. He needs to shoot more.
Skinner. I didn't love the 3rd goal. The Kings are getting the bounces big time right now. Doughty's goal, he loses control of the puck some and it goes in the perfect spot to go in but Skinner didn't play it well and I read this morning he said he misplayed it.
4th goal. He said he was screened but that can't go in. Not from that angle on the boards. I am not a goalie but to me, if you are in position the puck should hit you even if you are screened because the player wouldn't have an angle to shoot at.
With all that being said, the goalie not having his best game, a few very big mistakes their captain not playing well, and the Kings giving it their all, the game went to OT. In my opinion, to have a chance to win, the Kings have to play their best, they need bounces, they need Skinner to be mediocre, they need McD to be off and they need some big mistakes by an Oilers dman. That all happened last night. I don't think all that happens again in 1 game and even still, the Oilers could have won with a bounce here or there.
