In the last 6 periods of play in the series, with the Oilers in trouble, there have been 8 powerplays of which 6 have been Oilers powerplays including a rare overtime powerplay which obviously carries much more weight than a regulation time powerplay.

Impressive discipline suddenly shown by the sixth-most penalized team in the regular season.

I still remember that Oilers-Kings game seven last year where the Kings didn’t get a single powerplay. Again, quite the timing for the heavily penalized Oilers to pitch a perfect game.

Even last night McDavid is so reckless with his stick he hits both Kopitar and the linesman in the faces with one swoop and, to quote Oilers’ employee Louie DeBrusk, “no call on the play!”
