Your solution is the exact solution I stated a couple posts ago. heh. Woody needs to reign this shit in and speak to the players. Judging on continued behaviors it doesn't seem the right conversation has taken place.
Heres the deal. 2 time cup winners like Doughty or Kopitar are not going to get run out of the rink. The Oilers seemed to think maybe they could intimidate them, i really don't know. The Oilers got in their position by playing with talent and using that talent. Not by being frustrated, angry, and off their game.
Theres a mental aspect to this team that is still subject to being distracted, put off, and moments in games where they lose their confidence, focus. I'll tell ya, to watch the AV's play tonight and watch the Oilers, they're worlds apart still. Colorado was exectuing EV play tonight the way the Oilers play only on the PP. Colorado scored 4EV goals tonight and were generating constant 5 bell chances. Grubauer was fantastic in giving up 5 goals.Colorado got a shorty as well.
