You can’t defend against Leon and McDavid.. Whether they are on separate lines or playing together. They are playoff players who live and thrive in this environment..
Props to the Oilers. I’m a Canucks fan but will be cheering for them to bring the cup home. And damn, their building is loud af. Would have been wild to be there.
McDavids embarrassed every single team at least once in his career and it’ll be no different in the Cup Finals, maybe not every game but when it matters; You’ll remember why he’s the best player in the world
I can't speak for Jets fans but as an Oilers fan I miss Maurice in Winnipeg I thought he did a good job there unless Jets fans say different please correct me Jets fans
Good point about Miro's feet postion. Another point is Miro is a lefty playing the right side here. As soon as he committed to blocking McDavid going outside, Connor knew his cut with the toe drag would basically turn him inside out. What is also amszing about this is the instant he went backhand, the shot was already off his stick heading topshelf. No human, let alone Oettinger, has the reaction time to get up from a butterfly or raise their glove hand in time to block that shot from that close after realizing it was already in the air the instant he went from forehand to backhand.
