The momentum has shifted, and now the series moves to the Honda Center. Dustin Nielson and Tom Gazzola are back on The Oil Stream to break down a pivotal Friday night for the Edmonton Oilers. After a frustrating Game 2, the boys are asking the tough questions before the puck drops in Anaheim.
Game 3 Adjustments:
The 6-4 loss left a sour taste. What tactical changes must Kris Knoblauch implement to reclaim home-ice advantage?

Two games in, and #97 is still looking for his first point of the postseason. Is it the Ducks’ defensive scheme, or is the Captain battling through something we don’t know about?
Power Play Reset:
Going 0-for-4 in a playoff game is rare for this squad. Do the Oilers need to simplify the man advantage, or is it just a matter of execution?
Stepping Up:
Beyond the big two, who needs to find another level tonight? We look at the secondary scoring and the defensive pairings that need to tighten up.
Scouting the Ducks:
Anaheim has surprised everyone with its speed and grit. We discuss which young Ducks have stood out most and how they’ve managed to frustrate the Oilers’ transition game.
Goalie Talk:
Does the confidence in the crease remain high, or are we looking at a shorter leash as the series intensifies?
