Darryl needs to get McDavids autograph for certain guys. When u stand flat footed and watch he'll deke you out of your skates .
It's been nuts watching them try and continue chasing him, hitting him etc.
Here's the bad part ....it'd about to get worse in Edmonton and we all know it.
It's time to really grow a pair and stop with the retaliation....OILERS are winning this baiting game and we look like fools falling for it.
Second...need to get traffic , screens , bumps on Smith. What the heck is what happened last night ?
It was a blue paint party in our crease last night. Defend ffs. Skate and control the puck by slowing it down , plug up that neutral zone and posses the puck instead of pursuing it on D.
If that means less dump and chase and more skating it all the way out of the zone instead of looking for stretch passes then do it.
And forwards need to be better backchecking.
Dallas never let us skate around and look and remember how neutered we were in the opening round. They made it nearly impossible and we escaped that 1st rd barely.
It's exasperating watching this team self inflict it's own demise . Be better , be smarter this is Edmonton FFS. Come on!!!!
I'm telling you right now certain players have Sutter on mute already and the others aren't supporting the team physically or mentally. It's not that hard to see the tactics being used by the oil....we're playing right into their hands .
