Need a freaking defensive center against the Bruins.

Ryan on the first goal.

McDavid on the second.

Either Woodrow can't teach it or the players can't do it.

McDavid scored, what the heck has Ryan done?

McLeod is a passenger on the Oilers. Can't cover the slot.
1 defensive C doesn’t change much, you need every guy doing their job every shift.

Ryan has been effective for what he’s paid and his role. That first goal wasn’t his fault, he had a man, that was the winger (Kostin I believe) tracking the scorer to the net front the peeling off instead of actually taking him.

It's creating a flow. Bruins dictate just about every game they play.

Remember when everyone thought the Smyth, Koskinen tandem was terrible. Now look what we have LOL!

Also Bouchard giving up the offensive blue line. Lucky it isn't 3-1.
Bouch literally just glides back to his corner when a Bruin is racing after it and beats him to it lol

I love Clouder, but boy that guy has to grow some balls. He ALWAYS stops up or avoids checks. He could get more pucks on a forecheck if he was not scared to hit.

Yams missed a for sure goal if we’re talking “luck”.
Obviously I saw the lack of finish with Yamamoto but Bouchard surrenders that offensive blue line at an alarming rate.

If the Bruins score on the odd man rush we are out of the game against an elite team.

Pisses me off with McLeod too. For all the shit Bouchard gets about having no intensity, McLeod is literally allergic to any kind of contact.

Too easy to play against. Guys know he’s not gonna hit or throw the body, so it’s pretty much a free puck if you’re going into the corner.

Both don't play their positions for shit. Even if they don't have the energy they need to be in position.
