Joking right? maybe the guy shouldnt guide him into the goalie.

You don't use your stick. You get in his face. You grab him. Hell, punch him.
You crush him next chance you get.

Sticks are guaranteed penalties. That isn't a team first move. That's a a me first move.

Oil don't really look like they are trying to sit back but the Hawks are just better than us and coming out hard. This is going to be a grind to the finish and Talbot will need to be amazing.

Oilers are playing way too loose with the Hawks right now. Gotta tighten up and not let this get into a track meet.

EDM spending way too much time in their own zone. Not being hard enough on pucks in this second.

Every shift Benning/Nurse are hemmed in because Benning cant make a simple pass or a simple bounce out.

This team looks so slow compared to the Hawks.

Could be the Oilers are trying to play responsibly, adding to the fact that the Hawks are one of the most aggressive teams when down. Not that Chicago isn't in general a fast team, but the game context probably contributes a lot.

Hawks are amazing at coming back. But the Oilers are so far playing smarter than Vancouver did. Not giving any of their dangerous players any room and letting Talbot see the puck.
I direct thanks to Kris Russell. That extra top 4 dman really makes a difference.
Even Kane's breakaway he didn't have time to collect himself.

I don't expect Klefbom hitting the net this many times in a game for the rest of his career
