Sean Maloughney: Oilers vs Golden Knights Round 2 Primer

Can't give the Knights high danger chances like we were against LA. Team needs to tighten up. Vegas has a more balance attacked and we aren't going to get easy matchups to make up for our mistakes.

Penalty kill needs to be better too, 60% just isn't gonna cut it

I see Fleury giving one last go at World's this year.

40 years old and this will be his first appearance

The point differential for the players of these teams in the first round is pretty crazy. Obviously McD and Drai will always be point leaders, but they are also +5 and +6 respectively. Whereas the top two guys in Vegas Are Hertl and Eichel with 5 points, with a -2 and a -4 respectively. We also have Bouch with 7 and the THREE other players with 5 points. Also kinda nuts is that only 4 vegas players have a positive plus/minus, with Pietrangelo and Karlsson leading the way at +2. In contrast the Oilers only have 4 players with a negative plus/minus, but its not great that 2 of them are Bouch and Nurse at -3.

Pickard absolutely should start the next round.

MacKinnon and Crosby going this time. Crazy.
