As much as I want to pile on to discredit the Oilers... McDavid is extremely strong on his skates. When he gets hit doesn't fall... except when he sees the chance for a penalty... and then he is like a paper doll flopping down.
In comparison to Oliver who does not seem to have proper edges and falls at most inopportune moments... McDavid will fight though.
I also get he has a ton of Powerplay points.
Our team really has to be smarter playing him - but I expect it definitely is tough when he is as fast and solid on his skates as he is.
Flames can still beat him!!
