Disappointing game. Markstrom continues to be terrible against the Oilers. Time for him to step up and get his game together.
Sutter should maybe start thinking of ways to counteract McDavid and Draisatl because they continue to cave the Flames' heads in. Maybe try matching some lines or something. Six points for each of them over the first two games in the series is pretty pathetic. Woodcroft made adjustments to take the Flames strength away from them, time for Sutter to have his team make an adjustment and not let these same players feast on your team.
TSN Turning Point was Backlund losing the puck on his breakaway after the Yamamoto turnover in the first. Cash that in and the Oilers fold like a cheap tent. After that the Oilers strung together a series of changes that Markstrom managed to whiff on and give the Oilers hope. The Flames need to take advantage of their opportunities because the Oilers are very much going to take advantage of theirs.
