I want Sosh with Matthews and Nylander now.

x4. (sons and I agree)

Single handedly making the 4th line a threat this period. Would be really nice to stack that assertive and heads up play onto our top line.
 
Sosh has been great, particularly on that goal, but man was that some typical Oilers-defence there. Nurse in particular hasn't looked like a top-4 defenseman yet in his early career.
 
Our D has had a hell of a time transitioning the puck. Last few games in particular, a lot of routine zone exits turn into a needless adventure.

Nurse for Reilly. Yes or no. I'd be tempted.

To what? Laugh?
 
I hate piling on the guy, but it's amazing how many great plays from Matthews and Nylander have absolutely nothing to do with Hyman.

No offense but you are joking right?

Yeah, but:

A) I think right now you need a good defensive player as their 3rd.

B) That Hyman isn't immediately the ideal 3rd offensively for them doesn't necessarily mean you should give up on developing him into one.
 
Shut up Ray. That's what I hate about this game and I think is one of our issues. No defensemen other than Polak who will hit someone. I hate this new league where you can stand in front of the net and not worry about getting whacked.

For a few seconds, we had Sosh (out of the box) with the dream team.

I'm eagerly awaiting your frame by frame breakdown.

Only going by memory, but Sosh trucks it into Oiler territory and feeds Matthews coming in for a shot on goal. Nylander misses out on the rebound.

i.e. 100% Corsi with those three together.
 
Just so we are clear.  Marincin puts McDavid in a headlock and the fans didn't come to watch that happen.

Maroon falls into Anderson after the whistle and it's a good play.
