What infuriated me the most was on at least two goals they scored they went past our bench gloating and goading us and at no time afterwards did we actually look to do anything about it. We've got rid of the goon out of the game and they want to rid the game of fighting, but the "code" still exists and at no point did anyone play by it on our team.

Anyone paying attention could see this. And yet the Oilers management team somehow couldn't see the value in guys like Corey Perry or Evander Kane even after the last two years. Yes maybe overpayed or less useful in the regular season but you need them in the playoffs. The Oilers could have kept one or both and they decided they didn't need either.
And Knoblauchs only solution is to roll out 97 and 29 again and again. They look completely exhausted and beaten and it's only 3 games into the series. He get's somewhat of a pass because of all the injuries but they need to start playing the rest of the team. Play the 3rd and 4th lines on a regular shift and let them create energy and contribute. Maybe someone will take a piece of one of their skilled players - what an idea!
Right now less is more, particularly with mcdavid. He is a walking turnover and giveaway machine.

It's just that 97 and 29 are clearly injured. So there is no benefit to putting them out there in every situation to get abused. Let the depth go and see what they can do (they can't be worse) and at least have 29 and 97 rested and ready for key situations.
