Hard to really judge performances because LA did so little in the game but knob maybe found a new pair he likes in Walman+Klingberg
The common pairs last night:
Bouch+Nurse 8:58 - 55.47% xGF
Bouch+Walman 5:00 - 61.58% xGF
Bouch+Kulak 3:24 - 89.13% xGF
Nurse+Kulak 8:34 - 68.91% xGF
Nurse+Klingberg 3:01 - 56.63% xGF
Walman+Klingberg 13:07 - 93.45% xGF
Kulak+Emberson 6:52 - 80.94% xGF
Seems we would also love to clone Kulak and be able to play one with Bouch and Nurse :).
Maybe if Stetcher can come back we could have
Kulak-Bouch
Nurse-Stetcher
Klingberg-Walman
And with Ekholm back if we are so fortunate
Ek-Bouch
Kulak-Nurse
Kling-Walman

It's actually kind of crazy how much the defence goes in to the line blender right now too. I don't remember seeing that before. Some of it is because they're not playing Emberson a lot - he's had less than 10 mins the last two games - but I do wonder if they have different units for different scenarios, or if it's just whoever Coffey decides to yell out in that moment.
|
McDavid out there most with Bouch and Nurse, and only 3 mins with Kulak, so guessing Bouch+Nurse was done for the offensive push. Kulak saw the most of Kempe with a mix of Nurse, Bouch, Emberson.
Playing 5 D must make it hard, especially if we really wanted lots of Walman+Klingberg. Then you have Kulak having to play with everyone else, but maybe Kulak time was being saved for the more defensive ice time.
Emberson with his 111 total career regular season+playoff games being used sparingly probably not too surprising. Definitely hope we can put in a more experienced guy soon.

Not surprising given this coach's abject terror of using young players. At some point the Oilers are going to have to get over their gerontophilia though. I'd like to see us actually try to use some younger guys more earlier in their career. It'll inject speed and energy and they'll be cheaper than fourth lines full of long-in-the-tooth vets.
That said, it's not likely to change for next game. I do hope that Emerson (and/or Stecher) can win over the coach here so that we actually play a full roster.
