After sleeping on it two themes come to mind:

1. I don't think we had a dangerous opportunity in that entire game. Even the Tkatchuck one was mediocre at best.

2. I don't understand why we are so intent on matching Edmonton's size and game. Looking at the roster, the oilers have no depth. So rather than putting out glass and brouwer (I thought glass did well in his role), put out four lines that can score. The reason that Hathaways line did well is because the oilers have nothing past the second line. So let them neutralize our first and then bring waves. I don't know what we are scared of? Where are all these liberties everyone is taking that were prevented by Glass and Brouwer last night? The second half to that is find ways to agitate McDavid. Get under his skin, give him an extra shove, an extra face wash. To me a line up including Janko, Jagr, Lazar, Kulak would be far more effective than Brouwer, Stajan, Glass and Bartkowski.
