Mcdavid was really bad in this game despite the 2 powerplay points, especially in the 3rd. Wonder what's up with him, he looked really off today.
But yes, the Oilers deserved to lose this one for a multitude of reasons. Poor compete, dressing Derek Ryan, keeping RNH on the top line(holy shit he was bad), playing Nurse 20+ minutes despite his awful night, scratching J.Skinner and/or not scratching J.Skinner soon enough, letting S.Skinner sit on the bench and bring down Pickard's game, GM not getting a decent backup goaltender, GM not getting a good starting goaltender, GM not replacing the goaltending coach, Schwartz not teaching goaltenders how to handle the puck properly, Coach not calling out the refs after the LA game, coach not throwing a bench at the refs in this game, the hockey moms making all the players nervous, the hockey moms dragging their sons out on the town in LA until late(*may or may not have happened), etc etc.
Hopefully I covered almost everything.
