Zero confidence from our two top Dman. Game 3 turned the series when the Oilers created and score on 4 odd man rushes in 10 or so minutes. None of those are Markstrom. There are other rushes as well that he saved. The D was in shambles and no Tanev to calm the tide.
Of course Game 2 a quick whistle otherwise that game was tied in the third didn't help as very easily the Flames are up 2-0 in series.
But Hanifan and Andersson and Kylington never really recovered from that game 3 demoralizing. Again, Oilers and their D were letting in goals but it didn't affect them as much.
