CBOT - Thursday, May 23, 2024 - 11:00 p.m. (ET) - Segment #2

andand tanev still manages to get his stick. This lindell one, I know connor had been on the ice a minute at that time but that's still a really good play. Lindell has really caught my eye. >> Rick: he's a solid defensive defenceman, a strong buy and competitive. There was no way he was letting mcdavid get to the net. I know connor was out for a little bit but esa is a great competitor. >> Ron: his birthday, 30 years old today. Edmonton is taking away what dallas isal coulding up the left side. >> Rick: edmonton is trying to take it away. They're putting pressure on the puck, great read by foegele here. He reads the puck coming up the strong side and he's there on top. A grade a scoring chance. Same here, coming up the strong side, they have to defenceman right in there, ceci forwards it there and they ended up having a pretty good shift after this. Again, the strong side, they're not letting them come up. Dallas does a better job going d to d and up the weak side but edmonton is on top of them on the strong side breakout. >> Ron: all right, let's get to american airlines arena, gene and elliotte, what are you thinking? >> Gene: we're thinking the edmonton oilers after having the score tied almost won it right away, and dylan holloway's becoming one of those players that is important. Did you see something tonight you almost saw previously? >> Elliotte: I think more like jake oettinger saw something tonight he almost saw previously. Take a look at holloway, the chance tonight where he almost scores. It's a great attempt and an incredible save, vancouver fans and oiler fans will look at this and say it's not exact, but it's similar. This is last saturday night, game six. I wonder if oettinger saw this and said if I see holloway alone, he will try something like this. Get a chance to ask him postgame but the moment I saw the move, it reminded me of the goal he did score. >> Gene: you said it automatically, wasn't that like the move in the previous series. All right, the panel talking about ice time, connor mcdavid and some of the other players. What have you noticed about the ice time for the dallas defence? >> Elliotte: kevin mentioned petrovic was on the ice, got a big assist, but the split he's down 10 and a half minutes, suter 16:01. Look at edmonton's d, desharnais and kulak are the lowest two. Desharnais' at 17 minutes and kulak's over 15. So the longer this goes, and we're kind of wondering if we're in for a long night tonight, you think edmonton would have the better balance. >> Gene: really quick, kevin talked about alex pietrangelo on the ice. What an unbelievable story to be here in the playoffs. >> Elliotte: yeah, eight years after his last playoff game, he got into game six and he said the one thing that he said was no matter what happened between then and now, you never give up hope. And he's playing a big role tonight. >> Gene: an edmontonian and former oiler, ron, against his former team tonight. >> Ron: we will look at zone time and coach bowness, what do you think? >> Rick: I think edmonton is doing a better job especially that period going low to high, getting the puck in low and getting their defence more involved and getting more pucks to the net and bodies to the net. They are doing a better job of maintaining control of the puck and getting their d a lot more involved and going, again, look at the net traffic. Again that defenceman's job, gotta get it by that high guy, down by the net and sometimes you hope for a lucky break like seguin got on their goal. That's what you want there. Low to high, get the puck to the net, but make sure you got bodies there. Sometimes the timing is off and the forwards can't get there. In nose scenarios, we're looking at the forwards at the net and that's what you want. Shots and traffic to the net. >> Ron: you're new to making picks, let me read information for you to consider. Edmonton has career playoff overtime winners from connor mcdavid, evan bouchard, and zach hyman. Dallas has career overtime goals, pavelski's got four, duchene's got three, smith has two, johnston, seguin, and tanev each with one. For what that's worth. Rick, the special guest, who are you picking, one from each team? >> Rick: wyatt johnston, he's a gamer and he's going to come up big. And again I think edmonton's doing a better job with the d involved, I'm going with bouchard. >> Ron: kevin. >> Kevin: evander kane, he's close, and jamie benn. Two similar types of players around the net. >> Luke: give me the captain, give me connor, and on the dallas side I'll go pavelski. >> Kevin: still not getting invited to the wedding. [ Laughter ] >> Luke: trying so hard. >> Ron: I'll go with mason marchment, I feel, and I want to do dylan holloway but I'm going ryan nugent-hopkins. Kaneer or nuggy, one of those two. Short break, there's the party in I ice district in edmonton.

Plenty of fresh legs to start overtime, kris knoblauch saying this morning you look at the dallas line-up and there are really no weaknesses. Plenty of respect for a stars team lauded for their depth, but the oilers still one shot away here in game one on the road of the confee final. Kris and craig. >> Chris: great atmosphere, everybody charged up after the back-to-back seguin goals to force this extra session. 25 career stanley cup playoff goals now for seguin. And we should note 50 playoff points as a member of the dallas stars, and right off the faceoff, duchene went down. He's going to go to the bench in difficult as the oilers advance, ekholm sends it wide. Around it goes, bouchard! And that's stopped by oettinger, the first early test. And duchene gets looked at. >> Craig: didn't see is it live to see what happened, obviously dealing with the nose. Did a stick or puck come up? Oh, yeah, stick of mcdavid came up as they were wrestling to go after the puck. A shake by mcdavid dot him in the nose and pete deboer having a conversation now, so are the officials. Remember the linesmen can make this call if they saw it.

if you're on the edmonton oiler bench, this has to make you nervous that you remember the vancouver series, it wasn't called. There's no question the battle is happening, the stick comes up and gets him right in the nose. You can see kelly sutherland having a good conversation with the linesmen. They have to be absolutely sure. >> We have a double minor on 97 for high sticking. We will review the play. [ Cheering and Applause ] >> Craig: because they called it a double they can review it to make sure it's not an own stick or puck coming up. >> Chris: take another look. Did duchene's stick pull mcdavid's up into his face or not? All this coming 17 seconds in, and is it... >> After reviewing the play, the penalty is confirmed, we have a four minute penalty for high sticking on 97. [ Cheering and Applause ] >> Chris: and he is saying duchene holding his stick, and read his lips, what am I supposed to do? Unfortunately he has to go off for four minutes. >> Craig: here's the challenge for your penalty killers that as you mentioned have been spectacular. Best in the playoffs, no bigger time than on this stage to try to do it again. And you know this crowd trying to egg their team on to end this in the next four minutes. >> Chris: so here we go, benn on the draw. Pavelski out there, robertson, johnston, oilers control the faceoff but don't clear. Good keep at the line by heiskanen. It comes to robertson. And a chance here benn! And skinner down with pavelski on the porch. >> Craig: seen that a lot with benn, just a kick out there. As you rotate down low, you know the defence has to follow. This is one opportunity for desharnais to clear the zone, wasn't able to, and then on this rotation as soon as that lane opens up, the quick release and on the doorstep was pavelski, but really good job of skinner hollowayingholding on and not leaving a rebound. >> Chris: benn with 24 career goals in 43 games against edmonton, back on this faceoff against derek ryan who you have noted has been good tonight. And off that draw on to it is robertson, that's the first faceoff that ryan doesn't win in the game. Johnston up top, heiskanen. Jason robertson off the post! Skinner down! And he fights to cover up. Directly off the pipe. >> Craig: how about the reaction in front of desharnais. You hear that sound, and you think the worst, and you hear the crowd. But you can't stop fighting. And just a wonderful job of battling in front. Pavelski in good position goes right off and then in between the legs. Skinner feels it, he wins the battle, and then here comes desharnais to make sure pavelski doesn't get a second chance. Through the legs and back. Stuart skinner able to find it between legs. He got stick on puck, and then desharnais knocks pavelski down. >> Chris: just 25 seconds gone in the dubé minuter to mcdavid, and here's robertson again! And that hits the post. That time the outside of the short side post, heiskanen across, johnston. Looks for a redirect, robertson a bouncing puck. He's tied up by ryan, benn helps out to keep it alive. Jamie benn, heiskanen shooting! And stuart skinner's got that, and he has been stout so far and showing that competitive fire that he said was maybe missing for a couple of games. >> Craig: here's the tough angle shot here that stuart skinner really didn't even see. And then after, you look at a goaltender who's dialed in. Watch how quickly he's out to the top of his blue paint, able to grab thatnendnce again not allow a rebound to happen. >> Chris: now it's mcleod against seguin off the draw. Edmonton wins it, and it's going to be mcleod getting waved out by ryan gibbons. >> Craig: I don't like that one. He did a good job of coming in, I thought timing it. >> Chris: while he argues it, pete deboer wants to make sure that they didn't lose any time off the clock.
