Edmonton Oilers head coach Kris Knoblauch says team abandoned ‘small, little details’ in Game 3 loss to Dallas Stars
The Oilers were taking on water after a flying start to Game 3 of the NHL’s Western Conference final.
Every line Knoblauch, the team’s rookie head coach, sent over the boards in that disastrous 10-minute stretch to open the second was on its heels as the Stars poured into the offensive zone in white-and-green waves. The Oilers haven’t scored a goal in the third period in this series and are 0-4 in the playoffs when tied through 40 minutes, including 0-2 against Dallas after winning Game 1 in double overtime.
“We have the patience, the confidence,” said the 21-year-old, who scored his team’s third goal in Game 3. “If we don’t have a great period, we take that intermission and regain our thoughts and settle down a bit.” Edmonton also trailed Vancouver 2-1 heading into Game 4 at home and won’t be deviating from its process.
