Oilers had a plan, unfortunately, they have a good coach and have improved. Targeting Monahan was probably part of their plan as was getting into the Flames crease. Flames could have done more, such as bumping into Smith and getting him off his game. Lay some hits on McDavid, push him around.
Oilers did small things to force the Flames to take penalties
