VANCOUVER — The Oilers have been here before, heading back to Edmonton with their season on the line. The team is looking for a different result this time around. “You just have to take it one game at a time,' Oilers star Leon Draisaitl said Friday.
VANCOUVER — The Oilers have been here before, heading back to Edmonton with their season on the line.“You just have to take it one game at a time," Oilers star Leon Draisaitl said Friday."We’ve got to go home and win one game at home. That’s all we have to do.”
“We didn’t win last year’s Game 6. We’ll learn from that, I guess," Oilers captain Connor McDavid said after Thursday's loss."You’ve got to be ready to go.”The superstar didn't have a point in Games 3 or 5, and was held without a shot on net in Game 1 — the only time that's happened across his 59 playoff appearances.
"Without being disrespectful, I thought the last couple games we were kind of giving Connor a little too much respect, playing not to get scored on a little bit and when you do that, he just gets more time with the puck," Miller said after scoring the game-winning goal in the final minute of Game 5. "I think there's adjustments, whether those are the lines, fresh body or two coming in," he said."Again, those are things we'll assess and make that decision ."Stuart Skinner was in goal for the first two games of the series, but was replaced for the third period of Game 3 after allowing four goals on 15 shots.
