The turning point for me was the penalty Tkachuk to make it 4 on 4 resulting in McDavid's goal. It's 3-1 at that point and it looks like Nurse is taking a penalty to put the Flames back on the PP. The Flames had huge momentum at that point and wouldn't have been surprised to see them make it 4-1. Instead Tkachuk takes the unneeded penalty and McDavid drags the Oilers back into the game. I think Darryl mentioned this as his turning point in the game as well. Hopefully being on the road will let the Flames to play more structured game.
