After the Flames pressed a bit following the tying goal and Smith held the fort (barely, tbh) it seems they were content to ride the rest of the period out and wait for overtime. Unfortunately the Oilers wanted the win more.
We can piss all over RNH and call him Ryan Nothing Happens all we want, but he scored the two most important goals of the game last night. Capitalized on the forecheck when Markstrom gifted him the puck early and won a battle around the net to get inside position on a rebound game-winning goal.
Exact sort of performance you want from your depth centers. The kind of game that Jarnkrok dreams about having, probably.
