Other teams have beat Edmonton, we just refuse to gameplan around McDavid. It's like GG is too proud to just admit he's a game changer and have someone shadow him the entire game.
Who cares if it means we generate no offense for the 20 mins he's on the ice? Edmonton literally has no one else in their line up who are even remotely a threat. Smother McDavid. Have someone on him like white on rice. Every single second he's on the ice, shadow him. Even in the GD offensive zone.
You shut him down and they have nothing.
