McDavid is buying too much into this Kelser match up and is playing right into the ducks hands tieing himself up with him at times, he just needs to go out play his game and keep his feet moving he will either create chances or draw penalties, I hope the coaching staff relays that to him for next game.

Exactly, it is his fault he can't get anything going. If he just kept his feet moving and played the game he would get the calls and create chances. But don't expect him to have any impact today or for a while. We need someone else to step up in the third. Mcdavid has not shown any signs he is ready to break out and make an impact.

Don't say that, not cool :shakehead
unless it's Getzlaf...Jk no, really not cool.

it was a joke.

I just mean these "veteran teams" tend to get away with all kinds of chippy crap that would normally be considered dirty....but because its playoffs....they "know what it takes to win"

I saw this post and thought "oh wow this sounds as bad as a kevy999 post" then looked at the username.

I agree with Fuhr and I like the way Oilers are playing defensively. The Ducks haven't had a ton of great chances.

Push a little more offensively next period and find a way.

Am I the only one thinking mcdavid is just conserving his energy? We are exactly where we want and I sure he will expose them given the chance.

Or he is hurt. And if that is the case we are hooped.

tbh if the Oilers are able to pull out some wins without McDavid putting up big numbers it should shut everyone up who is saying the Oilers are a 1-line team.
