00:00They obviously almost blew a 4-0 lead.
00:02They gave up three unanswered in the final 20 minutes and were holding on for dear life.
00:07Momentum swings and it was completely swung against them.
00:11You have a 4-0 lead and it's a younger team, so they're going to have to learn this.
00:14If you make a team defend and win a battle and then have to come 200 feet, the clock is
00:20your best friend.
00:20Nothing matters other than make them come the whole way.
00:23And the Rangers got a little loose with that.
00:26Some guys trying to make plays.
00:27You don't need 5-0 or 6-0.
00:29You just need the zero.
00:30One goes in and then it's a power play.
00:32They get on the board again and it's a great give and go.
00:35And Veneers finds Eberle on the backside.
00:37They had adjusted their power play, Seattle did, which I thought was a nice adjustment.
00:41They wanted to play in the high ice.
00:43The Rangers took that away, so they played low and made a great play.
00:46Now it's 4-2.
00:47That's a way different mental scenario.
00:50And so now you're forced to use less of your bench.
00:54Sullivan's mixing and matching.
00:55And the rhythm of the game is different.
00:57That's how momentum happens.
00:58And then everyone in Seattle woke up because it was a very quiet building for 40 minutes.
01:02I feel like they do need to improve the way that they manage those momentum swings.
01:06Because I even go back to the first time they played the Oilers.
01:12Connor McDavid flying down, scoring 50 seconds into the game.
01:16Immediate momentum swing in Edmondson's favor.
01:19And there was no answer for it.
01:22And there was no answer for it.
