Finding Hyman
Draisaitl won that faceoff anyways and getzlaf got the puck from mcdavid, mcdavid needs to be stronger in that situation, wasn't draisaitls fault
Thanks for the clarification. I thought it was more of a contested puck and was anyway off the faceoff. I didn't think Drai won it.
In anycase the bigger problem is that both McD and Drai were very tired. Back to back games, both played very well on the night and Drai had the added strain of having to go up against Ducks top line all night and while playing with guys like Aberg, Cagg, Khaira. (Is it bad that I was almost happy when Cagg got hurt). This was too much to expect of Drai against a killer physical line. Aberg and Cagg couldn't handle the heavy play. Drai and the D were forced all night to bear the weight.
Anyway, yeah, zero gas in the tank left by the OT. McD and Drai would normally pressure puck better than that. You could tell the whole Oilers club was tired already in the first period. To their credit the Oilers found their legs in the 2nd but were gassed again by the 3rd. We hardly played games in February and we've played a ton of games in March. It catches up, especially with a team that is not deep and where some guys are pulling all the weight.
