While I know most of you won't care, I've gotta say that I'm really excited to see the rise of a new elite Swedish playmaker in Wennberg. With 43 points in 49 games, he's absolutely killing it right now and- along with others like Forsberg, Rakell and Rask- is showing really encouraging signs for the Swedish national team where their future at forward was a concern.

You're all alone there my friend. My love of anything Swedish at a national level pretty much ends at Larsson and ski bunnies.

Wennberg isn't a rookie. Remember to do research BEFORE commenting on something you don't know about

Klefbom isn't merely Swedish. He is far too gorgeous for one nation to stake such a claim.

The problem with the systems- particularly on defense- remains that, if they're gonna employ a plan to ring the puck around the boards so often, they have to have a more consistent and deeper in-zone presence along the boards. Too often you see the puck rimming around only to see no Oilers there and thus be received by an opposing blueliner without contest or their winger is too high and the puck gets picked off by an opposing forward that's lower down on the cycle.

Its been most evident against speed-based teams like Minnesota, San Jose and Pittsburgh. I'd like to see more adjustments by McLellan to address these issues.

Abortion-level giveaway to pretty much put a dagger in this game. Minny is too stingy to bank on coming back from a 2 goal deficit.

Because it's Connor's fault that Koivu beat two guys along the boards?

Seriously? Lol! All he had to do was drop another 3 feet. He'll figure that out but he's the guy that could've prevented that goal. Go jerk off to his poster then tell me how you really feel.

Same thing happens to JB every night when Rutts sticks it in his backdoor. Then he rolls in it.

As Draisaitl was down low on the play, he assumed the role of the C on the line. As such, Koivu was his check.

Russell, as the right side Dman, is supposed to keep the opposing LW (Zucker) covered. Instead of doing that, he chose to make a higher risk play by trying to assist Draisaitl along the boards and left his side of the ice near the slot open.

Though I don't blame him all that much as he had two men to "cover" (Zucker and Granlund), he picked up Zucker behind the net and was out-hustled to the puck.

As Leon had taken the role of C on defense, McDavid's man to cover was the right side point which- if you watched the play- he was doing.

The fault for the play lies mostly on Russell based on positioning and on whichever of the two in that board battle knocked the puck free and into the undefended slot area. Don't let your fundamental lack of understanding of systems get in the way of being a cock, though.
