Pretty amazing that neither earned a penalty.

Rather than try to push a narrative that helps the team (i.e. playoff penalty standard) or not bring up circumstances in game that by calling it out, would negatively impact the oilers.

For sure Maclean...probably the producers, too, but it doesn't really matter as Ron is actually steering the ship
