Hahahaha
If an AI coach had McDrai's defensive metrics, it would never have pulled the goalie.

Instead, it would have instructed the all 5-players to simultaneously flop on the ice like dead fish for their entire shift in the attempt to draw a penalty. With the FLA's pests (Tkachuk, Marchand) and Bennett; and the referee'ing history of gifting the Oilers late power plays, I bet the data is there showing that's the way for the Oilers to score.
