The Oilers were literally 1 win away from winning the Stanley Cup with Stuart Skinner in net. And that with Draisaitl injured, and with Nurse and a rookie on defense.
Crosby won the Cup with Matt Murray in net.
Matt Murray was amazing prior to his injuries, go look at his save percentages in the playoffs for those two runs.
It's never one thing though, and this is definitely not the same team as last year.
The team was worse at this point last year, lol. Like people forget that part? They probably would've given up 4-5 goals to an AHL team this time last year, they couldn't defend anything for shit. This year at least the problem is mainly restricted to a ridiculously low shooting percentage and poor special teams.
