G52 2017-01-31 Oilers defiled by the Wild

Game Notes EDM vs MIN

Minnesota Wild (Head Coach: Bruce Boudreau) at Edmonton Oilers (Head Coach: Todd McLellan)

NHL Game #751, Rogers Place, 2017-01-31 07:00:00PM (GMT -0700)

Wild 5-2

Referees: Ghislain Hebert, Dean Morton
Linesmen: Mark Wheler, Ryan Gibbons

Three Stars: Darcy Kuemper; Tyler Graovac; Adam Larsson

Not a great game, BUT!
- The Oilers haven’t been playing as well as their record over the last 5 games would suggest
- And this game wasn’t (quite) as bad as the score indicates … there was some real pushback starting early in the second (some of that was score effects of course), and some was that pretty much every mistake ended up in the Oilers net
My timeline is full of Russell venom, but check out the solid game (rink map) from Benning and Davidson.
The forward line rink maps are less useful because TMc got out the McBlender halfway through the game.
Anyway. Bad game. Deserved loss. Exposed by a really good team playing extremely well. Next.
