18 and 97 on the pk??
Interesting. I just can't convince myself that Dallas is any kind of legit threat.
They would have been out in the first round if not for an absolutely epic choke job from the avs and completely forgetting that Rantenan didn't play for them anymore.

Nice! Thought it was offside - was sure Draisaitl brought it out over the blue line. Was excited to see them drop the puck

Beauty first PK and first goal
Nice thing about Dallas is aside from Benn cheap shots they are minimally physical. McDrai could have a lot of fun this series.

ouch. Get it back. That was probably the first mistake of the playoffs.

Maybe having too much fun? That was a pretty careless display leading to a breakaway against.

Leon's good for those a few times a game, and Dallas knows it. That particular play he's gotten burned on countless times during his career.

Those are plays he's trying a bit too hard on.. Klinger should've faded back when he saw Leon coming toward him.. hip swivel was off a half second.. actually the guy who probably shudda faded back across the blue more was Walman on the other side..
c'est la vie..

This is the correct analysis from anyone not just looking to yell "Draisaitl sucks". Klingburg makes a soft pass, allowing too much immediate pressure. Draisaitl tries to do too much when he should have just tossed the puck to the corner or turned to the boards to grind it back down low. Klingburg is slow to react allowing Seguin to get a big head start. Wallman doesn't recognize there might be trouble and is too far wide and too late to be any help.
The team had a great period. One series of mistakes lead to a GA. Nothing to hand heads about. If the Oilers play like this consistently they will take the series.

Another great period. I have zero big picture complaints from the first 40.

This is the team that played game 5 and 6 against LA and games 4 and 5 against Vegas.
You can’t expect perfect hockey over 2 months. But THIS TEAM starting on time and playing a film 60? Not something any of use are used this seeing. And the commitment at both ends is like nothing we’ve seen from this group.
Stu needs to stay in his net. Bouchard needs to chill (or get some urgency - not sure) in his own end.
Overall though, domination. Let’s keep pushing and stretch that lead.

In one short sentence this the perfect summary for Bouchard. At his best, and at his worst, it is tough to tell if the cause is too much, or not enough. He is having a good game, hopefully he, and the team, can limit turnovers and finish this one off.

Great period. Keep playing like that and we will be hard to stop.
We could easily have gotten a few more. We didn’t give in much - just that one breakaway. PK was phenomenal - more dangerous than their PP. Skinner with a few nice stops, though he did start flopping a bit. And a bit of a miscue handling the puck. No fault on the goal though

Have to say much prefer Cam Moon over Jack.
Also.. discovered that when synching up 880 audio.. the "Live" PVR playback is delayed more than 880 .. you can't synch 880 audio.. but if you watch through the live TV broadcast .. 880 audio is behind the TV .. therefore you can pause and synch up with 880..

Lots of great chances we are passing up on or just not cashing in. We just love making things as hard as possible
