Re: Edmonton Oilers
Team is really starting to look good. If Caggulia can hold down the 3rd line C spot (he has so far but what about playoffs?) then I expect to see Draisaitl stay up on the top line.
Long-term I think something similar to Crosby-Malkin where they each play centre but also occasionally stack the top-line is possible.
As far as the OT GWG goes I can't believe we got the call. Yes the puck was clearly in the glove, and yes the glove was clearly behind the goal line, and yes common sense tells you that equals a goal. However, in the past the NHL has required a crystal clear view of the puck behind the line, it wasn't good enough to know it was in the glove, or under a pad, you had to see it. Anyways, solid game and great win at the end.
