  1. McDavid looks happy and relaxed. He and Draisaitl have more class than 99% of hockey fans the way they addressed the trade.

  2. You cannot have a pure breed offence guy like McD if he has to worry about defence and goalie all the time. Now he can free wheel again and has. Is Jarry an elite goalie? No but he’s average enough to keep the team in it and they can play with more confidence. Unlike that other we had. So glad he’s not our problem anymore. 😂

  3. McDrai with 8 pts in total, 4 pts each, King Leon accomplished 1000 pts, a beautiful night with a W! Keep it up, Cap! LFG Oilers!

  4. Now why would the coach not have Nudge or Draisaitl on when the net is empty? Leon especially when it was really his night getting his 1000 point? This just shows who is the pet for the coach. This is why I hate watching the Oilers play, its McDavid , McDavid yes he is a great player but not as good a team player as Nudge or Draisaitl are. They really are team players, number 2 just seems to show who he favors as he always passes the puck to Conner even when 29 is wide open to score. Am I the only one who sees this??????? Winning is more important to Leon then who scores. I feel for Ryan as I really don't think the coach is being fair to him, he plays much better with Draisaitl and Leon likes playing with him. but no he has to be with McDavid along with Zack. Since 22 started playing with 29 he has really improved as he knows 29 will pass him the puck. I am sure no one agrees with me on this but who cares.

  5. I hate that stu is now gone, i hated this game cause seeing skinner as an enemy really was soul crushing!!

  6. This was the last game……..Why would you go back to that failing System focus that dug you into an early grave this Season Kris?… that Quick-Up long bomb Pass that Transits Zones instead of Transitioning Zones with pace and numbers… you had it fed to you hard tonight…very poor Pre-Game planning…extremely low level way of responding to the Habs System….not acceptable…no valid reason for those changes…not a good sign. Explanation required? Why no mid-Game adjustments? Actually after 2-3 shifts you should have seen what they were doing to you….not good enough…you Coaches have to be better.

    As a Tactical Systems Analyst….I say "Job well done" tonight … This game the Coaches went back to the correct System adjustments …. smart move to step back and fix things…thats better Coaching…. …during this game the Team was Transitioning Zones with numbers and they dominated the game-pace and momentum because of it…. if they keep it steady the Team will be ready come playoffs.

  7. That man…the legend…the guy who disappears every time he’s in a Stanley Cup Final Series.
