Bottom line in this game:
The best forward of the game: McDavid
The best defenseman of the game: Klefbom
The best goalie of the game: Talbot (Smith was good, but can't argue with a shut-out on opening night)
Best line: McDavid, Maroon, Draisaitl
Best D pairing: Klefbom - Larsson
It's an Oilers sweep!
Flames had no answers, and they looked SLOW. They couldn't generate hardly any good chances, especially when Klefbom and Larsson were on the ice (they were GOOOOOD!). Klefbom was so dominant all night, and I can't tell you how excited I am to see how good he's going to be this season. His Corsi must've been crazy good, but he looked even better with the ol' eye test. Oh, and McDavid looks even faster (if that's even possible) and his shot is definitely better!
