They are in BIG trouble. You know a L is a L, its only 2 1, but the fashion in which they are playing and handling the Oilers is extremely worrisome. Most teams make adjustments or adjust their own game to defend McDavid and take at least ONE thing away from him. You aren't going to shut him down but through 3 games he is literally getting whatever he wants. The Flames are literally doing the exact same thing game after game after game. We are going to lose to a team with 1 player who is in on 75% of their goals.
And Draisaitl, is it ok lets take it easy on him cause hes hurt? He hasn't been hit once that i've noticed. Dirty or not, the guy is on one leg, go after it. Its the Stanley Cup playoffs, whatever it takes. Instead they are playing shinny around him.
