00:00The
01:30Without Connor, without Ekki, without me, whoever it is, we're capable of winning hockey.
02:00He loses his way to the net, ditches a one-timer score, and Drysaddle puts Edmonton on the board.
02:05Drysaddle by David Trey, down low, Kopitar puts it up the boards, it's sealed to maintain by Klinger, takes it out, escapes it, Kuzmenko, cuts to the metal, loads and fires, redirected home by Drysaddle.
02:31Yeah, they're just winning that battle right now. That's, yep, that's really all it is. They're beating us, not the purpose.
02:40Yeah, we gotta fix some things and be better.
02:42No, of course not. Way, way too many.
02:45Just, yeah, a little slow right now and, again, something we have to fix.
02:52You gotta have some of that against that group over there.
03:07I thought we did a good job of just sticking with it and waiting for a chance and, obviously, dug in there in front of the net by Klinger.
03:16It's a big goal, so, yeah, take the win and move on.
03:20Asked it to our, to our lineup that, um, we don't have a lot of him. Um, you know, he's obviously a guy that doesn't overthink these, these big moments, right?
03:29He just, he wants to score and he wants to, he wants to play them. Um, you know, very, very happy we have him back.
03:36Looking inside, time for second field with 16 power play goals this year. Hands off to McDavid. Back to Dreisler.
03:57Waits, Newton Hopkins. McDavid, right around to the floor.
04:01Starendon, Dresler scores! Series time!
04:06To be honest, we stick to, we stick to what we do. Uh, we stick to what we're good at and what we've been successful with.
04:13And, um, the first two games we have a lot, we've had lots of looks, plenty of looks and, and it just didn't seem to go our way.
04:19So, um, yeah, it's been going our way. Obviously, we're looking to continue that.
04:23We sit back from minute one. So, uh, that's, that's what they do. That's, that's, that's what they do extremely well.
04:29That's what makes them a really hard team to play against. And then they're dangerous, uh, open, opportunistic group.
04:35Um, so I, I really liked our composure. I like the way we stuck with it. And, um, you know, this group to beat that team over there, you need a lot of patience.
04:43And, um, obviously that was a mature win for us.
04:45Type of game as well. Uh, because we're, we're good at that as well.
04:49And, and we need, we need to prove that and show that. So obviously it shows a lot of character and we can, we can be really proud of that, but you don't want to do that every night.
04:58Um, chances that could have gone in where we're close and we weren't maybe just as sharp and connecting on those.
05:06So, um, the last two nights, obviously we bear down and, uh, yeah, we're looking to continue that.
05:11Great players that have been part of that and, um, you know, have, have won it in the past.
05:28So, um, obviously proud, uh, to be in that conversation with some, uh, pretty amazing, uh, pretty amazing players.
05:36So, um, yeah, I'm happy about, oh, I don't know, I don't know, you guys usually get it wrong, so, same thing.
05:47Uh, yeah, it just helps, obviously. Uh, it's nice to, uh, anything that's lingering around, um, you know, give it a couple extra days, which, um, obviously for, you know, any team in the league, any player really is, uh, yeah, it's good and nice.
06:14Uh, two or three nothing hole again, right? And, and if you do, then, then you're going to try and climb your way out of it, of course.
06:21But, um, you know, it's big to, to start the series off well and, um, you know, find your game in the league.
06:28Um, you know, time, uh, obviously solves a lot of problems.
06:44Uh, when it comes to injuries and stuff like that, we, we, we haven't really had our, our full lineup in a long time, so you could really tell the first couple games.
06:51So, um, I think we're coming along and, uh, obviously the longer it goes, the better it is.
06:56Yeah, always tight, tight games. Uh, two really good hockey teams going at it. Uh, two teams that know each other really well.
07:02Uh, two very competitive, uh, groups. So, um, should be, should be a good series.
07:07You know, thank you and good luck.
07:09Yep, thank you.
07:10On the one-timer, McDavid and Dreisaitl on the ice.
07:14Spitting big glass. One-time ripped by Bouchard off the glove of Elwood.
07:18Oh, again. And in the back of the net by Leon Dreisaitl.
07:22Um, and then, because this is obviously all table, so, um, I'm not really putting it in the middle of the net.
07:25And then, because this is obviously all table, so, um, I'm not really putting it in the middle of the net.
07:27And then, because this is obviously all table, so, um, I'm not really part of the goal until, until the end there.
07:40So, uh, tough, tough to celebrate this one, but, um, I'm not really putting it in the middle of the net.
07:46And then, because this is obviously all table, so, um, I'm not really part of the goal until, until the end there.
07:53So, uh, tough, tough to celebrate this one, but, um, yeah, we'll take it, go home, use the crowd.
07:59Um, I'm sure, I'm sure it's a little loud and intense back home.
08:03So, um, obviously just, yeah, keep, keep our foot on the gas and, uh, continue to chip away at it.
08:09Leon, thank you. Congratulations.
08:10Yeah, thank you.
08:11Well, we weathered it okay, obviously. Um, they, they had some of our heels a little bit there for a little bit,
08:16but weathered it, got it into overtime, and, um, you know, at that point, all you need is one, one hockey play, really.
08:22Um, you know, unfortunately we got that tonight. Um, and, you know, that's not a, uh, that's not a great situation to be in,
08:30when you have 97, uh, coming, coming out, you have full steam, so, um, yeah, again, just an old, old road play.
08:38But, I think after that it's just, uh, unlucky. It's unfortunate. Obviously it goes off my stick. I'm just trying to, um, yeah, keep it out of the net, obviously.
09:00And, um, yeah, it's just a bad bounce.
09:03It's nice to be up 2-1 still. Uh, obviously, um, two days from now, um, there's a new chance to, um, yep, go up 3-1 and, um, go back to Vegas.
09:13We've been in that situation, uh, as well, so, um, I think we've done a good job in the past of, you know, matching that and, and, and, you know, staying, staying at the moment and, um, capitalizing whenever we get the chance.
09:25So, uh, yeah, we were obviously going to do that against me. And I know sometimes that's what it takes months to win.
09:44Um, you know, I could put my, my own stats on the back room for a couple of months if that means that we're going to be the last team standing.
09:52Obviously we've got a long ways to go, but whatever it is, um, you know, I'll, I'll gladly do that.
10:09A little bit looking out as to what they need and, um, you know, a break at this time of year is never a bad thing, but obviously you don't want it to be too long.
10:18Um, this was, um, this was, uh, right on the edge, but, um, yeah, okay, I think we've just looked forward to playing.
10:24I think we've got hockey in this country, um, and, um, I don't know if teams, uh, feel that they're in pressure with that.
10:31I'm not the right person to answer that, but, um, you know, we, we can handle it and we're, we're excited to, you know, um, yeah, get back to playing.
10:41I think we're going to put a best effort.
10:55They've won us games for the most part and, um, you know, they've carried us and they've given us a chance to, to win every night.
11:03Um, again, you, you, you just need that at this time of year.
11:07Um, he's obviously seeing it, uh, or he has been seeing it, so, um, I think we've got a lot of guys that are willing to go there and, and make it hard for them, so, um, yeah.
11:19Oh my, he looks.
11:45through the kill, obviously, you know, a power play, I don't know, it was much better, so just look at it, correct it.
11:56Yeah, absolutely, I mean, we played a really good 40 minutes, obviously got away from us, it's frustrating, but lots of good we could take the first 40.
12:15Our forwards, track and back, and put the pressure onto them in the neutral zone, and then our D have had amazing gaps, so that's obviously a key, something that we have to continue.
12:33You can't replace guys like that, right? But the guys that have had to step up and take some of that ice time, they've been amazing.
12:45Give a little extra time before, peel it back to the Dallas Pins.
12:51Yeah, obviously, you know, towards the end, I thought our third period was really well played, you know, not much against there, so, yeah, just got to keep chugging away at that.
13:13Patience, great high flick, great read by Cappy, it's just, it's a domino effect of great hockey plays, really smart, detailed hockey plays, and obviously a big goal for us.
13:25We put in a lot of work over the year, and a lot of guys stepping up at different times, so, that's a heck of a team over there.
13:44So, yeah, we'll take a very happy, obviously, to move on.
13:49Yeah, I mean, it'll be a rematch, so we're happy, we're obviously excited, enjoy this tonight, and, yeah, get ready for it.
13:57And our depth has been incredible, and we've been playing good hockey, good solid hockey throughout the entire line-up, and obviously this time of year, you need that, and I think so far we've done a great job with that.
14:09I mean, yeah, that's a big-time play, of course. There's only one player in the world that can do that in that moment, and, you know, we're very fortunate to have him on our side.
14:22You know, the way they play, it's not, like, anything new to us. We don't know what they're about, they know what they're about.
14:41We'll try to find a little tweaks for the series. We've got some of those travel days, so that would be nice, but, you know, we've been there, we've done that travel day, and, you know, handled it really well last year, so, yeah, I'll certainly do that again.
15:00Those moments, having been, having been in those games, and not being able to finish it yet, I think that's what it was, right? So, yeah, we're excited to get another crack at it.
15:25It's nice to start off at home, of course. Later on in the series, it'll play for me.
15:31It's nice to start off at home, of course.
15:35It's nice to start off at home, of course. Later on in the series, it'll play factor, but right now, obviously, the first four, it's just two and two.
15:45So, excited to get going here. Just excited. Not overly nervous. There's going to be some nerves, of course, but, yeah, just excited to get going.
15:55Leon, thank you, and good luck. Thank you.
15:59Booslake takes him to the end boards. Kapanen crashes in there. Drysaddle trying to feed the point. It'll come back to Wolfe and a shot.
16:05The rebound in front. Scores! Leon! Drysaddle!
16:09Bouchard!
16:24I thought it was a pretty evenly played game, obviously we got it done when it mattered,
16:44but yeah, they're obviously a good team.
16:47It's easy for me to put that home.
16:53So yeah, it's a special feeling.
16:56It's great for right now, but I've got to look ahead and get ready for them too.
17:17Yeah, I mean, obviously we got to look on the other side and it's a breakaway.
17:34It squeaks through, you know, thinking about it too long.
17:37Obviously it stings right now, but yeah, we have to move on.
17:40I can ask you about that assist from Connor on the carpet and walk down the road to you.
17:44Yeah, I mean, it's one player in the world that can make that.
17:48So yeah, both games have been obviously very tight, gone the distance and extra.
18:05So yeah, two really good teams going at it.
18:08Obviously you have to, you know, stay detailed and know that all those little bounces matter.
18:14You get ready for tomorrow, coming in here, you know, looking to play our best game.
18:18And yeah, we're comfortable playing, playing our best on the road.
18:23So yeah, just shift your focus to that.
18:26Not the game that we wanted to bring, certainly far away from our best.
18:43So just flush it out, flush it out a little bit and start getting ready.
18:49You know, all hell breaks loose, it's a UFC fight.
18:53But like, I think overall we can be a little bit more disciplined and stay away from that.
19:01But there's also times where we handle it really well.
19:05Yeah, I think we're all looking forward to tonight.
19:21You know, we're a team that responds really well after, I guess, not so great games.
19:27So yeah, we're looking to do that again tonight.
19:31We know it's going to be hard.
19:33You know, they got the same plan over there.
19:35But I think with experience, you just learn that in these moments, all you need is one game right now.
19:42You know, we got to get moving.
19:55We're a hard team to play against when we're skating and we're working up the ice
19:59and we're making it difficult for opposing teams.
20:03So I thought after the second, after the first, sorry, we started doing that.
20:07Again, our first wasn't what we wanted.
20:09And then we started to get our legs and we started to get going a little bit.
20:12And that's the intensity that we have to play with, you know, when the puck drops.
20:17Leon, thank you.
20:19Scratch and claw our way back.
20:21But it is a great, it's a great characteristic of our team.
20:28You know, we continue to chip away at it.
20:30And today, obviously not a good start, but then we started playing.
20:35Yeah, it's good.
20:37But I mean...
20:38It's a new record.
20:39Obviously we got a lot of work ahead of us here.
20:41So I'll take it.
20:43But yeah, bigger picture.
20:45He makes those stops at the key moments that we really need them.
20:49And he's one of the best in the league at making the right save at the right time.
20:54And I mean, he's been nothing but spectacular for us.
21:01We're in the finals.
21:02They're going to have their push too.
21:03That's a heck of a hockey team over there.
21:05But, you know, this time you got to stick with it.
21:09And I thought we'd done a really good job of that tonight.
21:25And for us it's about, you know, trying to get to our game a little bit quicker.
21:30I think playing better.
21:33I think we still haven't seen our best.
21:36And it'll be a great time to show.
21:39That's tough for goalies, I could imagine.
21:41I'm not a goalie, but I feel like that's probably not...
21:43It doesn't seem fair, right?
21:45So we have full belief in him.
21:48And yeah, obviously I'm looking forward to getting this home tonight.
21:54They box out well.
21:56Defend well.
21:57Always hurts.
21:58It's...
21:59Yeah, I don't know.
22:01It's...
22:02Not more or less.
22:04It's just the same.
22:05The takeaway is that we didn't win.
22:07It's...
22:08Nobody cares.
22:09Like, nobody cares.
22:10We didn't win.
22:11So...
22:12Yeah.
22:13Gonna try again next year.
22:24Especially the last couple of games, you know.
22:29There's a couple of mistakes that we made that...
22:32We didn't get from them.
22:34You know?
22:35It was never that easy.
22:37So...
22:38That's up to...
22:39To win.
22:40For sure.
22:41You wanna beat these people.
22:42You wanna be in the ring with these guys.
22:44I think we've done that.
22:46Another thing that pushes us obviously is just wanting to win.
22:50We have to be in the last team.
22:52We have to be in the last team.
22:53We have to be in the last team.
22:54So...
22:55Yeah.
