What a way to start the postseason! The Edmonton Oilers officially lead the series 1-0 after a thrilling 4-3 comeback victory over the Anaheim Ducks at Rogers Place.
On today’s edition of 2 Guys & A Goalie, the fellas pull back the curtain on a wild Game 1 and look ahead to what’s next:
The Comeback:
We break down that massive third-period surge. What shifted the momentum and allowed the Oilers to storm back and take control?
Pros & Cons:
The boys dive into the tape. We discuss what worked (the power play, the grit) and what needs immediate attention (slow starts, defensive lapses)
The Goalie Perspective:
From the crease out, we analyze the performance of the netminder. How much of those three goals were on the defence, and how much was on the tender?
Stepping Up:
Connor and Leon did their thing, but who else needs to find another gear to ensure this series doesn’t go the distance?
Game 2 Lineup:
Do we see any changes for Wednesday night? We discuss whether Kris Knoblauch should stick with the winning combinations or shake things up to keep Anaheim on their toes. It’s playoff hockey in Edmonton—there’s nothing like it.
