Easier said than done, but I don't know why they feel they need to win the puck off of him when he's against the boards, close to the blueline. Just keep him in front of you and don't jump in!
Dube has the skating ability and tenacity where you don't expect that to happen against him that easily, even if it is McDavid. I do expect him and the rest of the Flames to defend him better moving forward!

McDavid feasts on 1:1 situations against forwards. Few can stop him. The key is not putting yourself in that situation. If he's coming down, with speed, against a forward - he will more often than not - generate a chance.
