Watch as Edmonton Oilers captain Connor McDavid makes it look casual, charging in to draw a penalty shot then firing home a wrister to beat Florida Panthers goalie Sergei Bobrovsky for his first multi-goal game of the season.

So who’s the next coach? lol trade mcdavid please, bring in some grit while he is worth lots! Kane got a swollen head……..need to even out the minutes again, that is how we won, another coach putting all the faith in two players!! That does not work god dam it!!!
his stick handling/puck control is ridiculous
I’m sorry. I’m a goalie. And much as I like McDavid (super class act, super generational talent)… that was not what I’d call a classic, proper penalty shot. That was a terrible shoot-out walk-in…. We HAVE** to alter the rules so that Penalty Shots, and of course, Shoot-out’s (which ought to be identical) are ALL BASED on REAL-LIFE breakaways, as if a defender is tailing you. You HAVE to rush the goalie, vs. walking in like Patrick Kane tap-dancing with his stick like Fred Astaire on a Sunday afternoon stroll. You can’t do that. And there’s not even enough momentum to cross the goal line on either side of the net. THAT, ladies and gentlemen, should the the RULE as confirmed by a ref at his/her direction… that the motion was in full-sweep, and moving fast enough. YOU CANNOT slow down to a crawl. It’s a mockery of the game, and makes it completely useless and cringeworthy watching players get cheap goals — which is the last thing that feels like real, fast-paced, elegant hockey. EVERYBODY we have to change the rules. No more shoot-out walk-up’s….!!
I slowed that shot down to .25x and still couldn’t see the puck
That escalated rather quickly.
Not surprised the panthers tripped him
Get him that pride shirt
Both this game and the bolts bruins game were electric tonight. No pun intended
Being this good is a blessing and a curse. Ive always been an Oiler fan but what im not a fan of is how people treat 97 in regards to the pedastal that they put him on. Sadly this organization is hung up on past successes and the pressure is just unreal for these guys to bring home a cup. Especially 97. Commercials with 99 and telling the press its cup or bust. Its not working out. Everyone, including the veterens on this team need to stop drinking the cool aid and come to terms with the fact that they arent a dynasty team. Blow it up. I hope Leon and Connor both choose to sign somewhere else . Im done supporting this upper management billionaire wet dream of a franchise that seems to live in fantasy world of run and gun offence with nothing to show for it.
What a legendary shot
Delusional Panthers fans booing a clear trip/penalty shot call
The oilers win the game!
NHL should change its penalty shot rules. Little ridiculous that you can move that slowly toward the goal. This is what I'd like to see:
1. Penalty shooter starts at center ice.
2. Everyone else behind the blue line.
3. As soon as shooter touches the puck, everyone else can chase.
4. If the shot is saved, the play continues live.
5. Anyone in the lineup can take the penalty shot, not necessarily the player fouled.
He Kusnetzov’d it
He hit those boards hard
Lol ohh yah oilers still suck
Mcdavid is so fake
Why dose the goalie have purple helmet
With Kuznetsov it's boring and should be banned, with Mcdavid it's surgical and clean. JUST SAYING.
"Wait, what? It's in?"-Bobrovsky
бобровскй даже не понял что произошло аахахаха
So um, how about we discuss the fact that Bob robbed McDavid and Draisaitl after the early first period. He let nothing else in, other than this penalty shot. I don't really know who would have stopped that. The save on Draisaitl should be all over the highlights, tbh. Beauty of a save but sure, keep on doubting him. Tied for 20th all-time for wins now and he's going to get more. Gonna end up passing Hasek with 21 more wins.
Mcdavid was like bored when scoring from penalty shot that easy
He looks healthy to me 🎉😅
No need for a whole 2 minute video for that goal….
wtf is going on with bobrovsky's helmet 😭😭
Had lower bowl seats at the game last night and man, McDavid just makes it look too easy in person.
Sorry Bob, that purple mask gotta go buddz
Almost put it in while falling down
Man, Bobrovsky is a great goalie and McD made it look like he'd have him beat all day everyday
Damn, I feel like coaches and analysts can study this penalty shot for a while as a case study in both goaltending and shooting. The way McDavid used angles here was definitely what I'd call "surgical".
Never even saw the puck, ngl
Lol pual looked mad sorry bud that is all on your player 😂
If a defending player throws his stick to block a shot against his team's empty net, play will be stopped, and a goal will be automatically awarded to the attacking team.
…kinda feels like the same time-saver should be put in effect when McDavid gets a penalty shot. 😂
lmao even frame-by-frame you can't see the puck between his stick blade and the back of the net! 🤣
McOneway strikes again. Flops like an Italian soccer player, refs play along. Score 2 goals end up -2 , most overrated player of all time.
Nothing to fancy, just used his angle perfectly. Doesn't get better than that
Who are these announcers? A 10bell save from Picard or whoever that G was in net for Edmonton. Really it starts with a 10?? save?? Where was that?..Cmon ya trying to hard to sell the game a 7 at best. Has the goaltending in Edmonton gotten that bad? These guys fake excitement is such a turnoff. Nice goal from a great player on a team in shambles.
Try some new glasses and a larger screen its there.
