The oilers played the game within the game and found a way to get the goals. They rely on powerplays to succeed so they have mastered it. The Flames in the past used to do this sort of thing "throw teams off" We should have given Smith a couple of shoves in the crease and given less respect to McDavid. McDavid had too much space and too much fun. We should be wiping that smile off his face, should have hit him hard and hit him often. Anything to throw him off his game.
Flames played well 5 on 5 but obviously didn't do quite enough. Hopefully, the team will learn how to get under their skin.
