So I was just looking at that...and actually it wasn't McDavid that did the most damage against that pair.
Tanev and Zadorov:
vs McDavid: TOI: 3:43. 50% Corsi For, 54.5% xGF, 0 GF, 1 GA
vs RNH: TOI: 4:25, 100% Corsi For, 100% xGF, 0 GF, 0 GA
vs Ryan: TOI: 5.09, 28.5% Corsi For, 4.0% xGF%, 0 GF, 1 GA
vs McLeod: TOI: 1:42, 75% Corsi For, 85.5% xGF%, 0 GF, 0 GA
So it was really that they had a really, really bad shift against the Ryan line most likely, and that likely ended up in his goal (I missed the 1st period so didn't see that goal).
Edit: Was curious so I looked at the shift results chart.
On the shift where Ryan scored it was Backlund, Lewis, Lucic, Tanev, Zadorov against Ryan, Foegele, Kassian, Ceci, Keith.
On that shift it was 0 xGF, 0.3 xGA (which is huge for one shift). For the game they were 0.27 xGF, 0.79 xGA. So most of the issues were on that single shift.
