Of all the things that are no good (social media, inflation, flat earthers etc) Edmonton is the most no good.

The Oilers, led by two of this generations Gretzky's, were just shutout by the Leafs, who were using their backup and the backup to the backup.

E=NG

This is the way.

Wow you're telling me the derpplegangers can be shut down even when you start your second and third string goalies against them?

Well I'll be.

Oilers respond by folding like a cheap pup tent.

Shocking.

Leafs kept a man on McDavid the entire game, like when teams used to shadow guys in the 90s

Our strategy is always stop doing things that work, and keep trying new things that don’t work

You know what doesn't work? Laundering your complaints in this thread.

Edmonton is no good.

Did we actually take Backlund off of McAvi shadowing duty after shutting him down in the first game and proceed to give him 5 points the next night?

That was the one thing they got right from the first game.

I think it was Lindholm the first night, Backlund the next because of last change, but he has never had much success against him

Backlund has had some extremely good games against McDavid. I think the relatively few nights he’s broken out just stand out.
