Post-Game Talk: McDavid hated that goal

Great comeback victory and great game for McDavid, Hyman and Skinner.

How do the Skinner haters feel?
The same as always? Have a good game or two doesn’t change peoples opinions on starting goalies, nor should it. We have a larger sample size.

Skinner settled down good. Was fighting the pucka bit but making the stops.

Nice time for McD to score a goal.

Hyman with another key game.

Blues weren't really that good in this game. Oilers should have won in regulation I felt. Blues bag a point but look to have lost their playoff possibility. I think we see the Blues dive out now. They need 2 pts basically every night.
 
He lied.. he said he didn't want to score anymore.

Big props to Nuge for saving the game with his back check
Was a really nice play. That said poor job there by Thomas as he wasn't protecting the puck and taking too long. Nuge must skate silently heh. Drai stripped a puck too just 15secs later as the Oilers were kind of loose towards end.

Much needed win... hopefully they can get a bit of a winning streak going.

This spotting the opposition 1 or 2 goal leads has to stop though... they can't keep coming back and repeatedly try to win games from behind every game.

Skinner with a great night in net... after those early goals. He legit kept the Oilers in there in the 3rd and in OT until McDavid unleashed his shot for the winner.

Hyman is a warrior... basically is the only Oiler who consistently gets greasy and fights for goals around the net.

Without his 60 goal pace this season... this team would obviously be in a LOT worse position right now.
 
Surprised the Blues are where they're at in the standings. They are not easy.
The Binnington show. Blues didn't deserve to even be in this game. They played solid first 5mins and figured they had something. Figured right there that Blues stepping back there and playing careful was the wrong move for them. Absolutely Oilers were coming back from that. By the end of first that was evident.

Blues even with Binnington in net have trouble holding leads.
