Oilers reporter Ryan Rishaug and TSN Hockey Insider Chris Johnston join SC with Jay Onrait to discuss what the difference was in Edmonton’s Game 2 loss to Florida, the frustration that Connor McDavid and Leon Draisaitl have shown with their inability to create offence, and an injury update on Darnell Nurse.

FIRST Panthers in 5
We saw Draisaitl's frustration quite clearly… Dirty player with a dirty elbow.
if they had played the same line in game 6v against dallas we could be tied in the eries rn!
Defensive clinic
The Oilers lac of Maturity is showing its ugly head for the 2nd year in a row. Why? Mumford is a useless waste of time and I think he screwed with the Oilers heads and neutered them emotionally. Mature does not mean emotionless.
both players know they are done HAHAHAHHA what a sad team and a sad city
Leon should be sitting 2 here. I couldn’t imagine the uproar in Edmonton if mcdavid was on the end of this.
This series is over. Florida will win the cup
Mcdavid isn’t much of a leader. More of a whiner.. always complaining to the refs. He will never win a cup with the oilers
I hope Florida dirty elbows Draisaitel in game 3 as retaliation for intentionally injuring the Barkov in game 2.
I mean that what happend you depend too much in your stars to do most of work your gonna end up like this
McLeod
The panther won. The series is over. 31 years and counting. Canada without a cup. It's embarrassing to be Canadian
Im from Vancouver and a canucks fan. Hate oilers but mcdavid is getting whacked and pulled with sticks everywhere and seems like refs don't see any. Is my hockey eye off???
These two superstars getting shut down by Barkov (the better player) – better hit with him an elbow
Frustration comes from having no answers.
No one wants Oilers to win. Let's go 4-0 blowout!
Woah, mentioning Rodrigues' clean hit how it injured Darnell, but didn't mention anything about Draisaitl's hit on Barkov? Jesus you guys are biased that is already way too ridiculous. Shame on you!
Frustration level of Draisaitl and McClown: Hurt Barkov, his better than us two combinate
They are frustrated they couldn't hit on the golf court yet! No worries, time will come soon
Not a word about Draisaitl's elbow. Seriously?
Draisaitl saying he's accountable?! If he's really accountable, then he should own up for his very dumb play of leaving his feet and putting a forearm into Barkov's head(the replay video does not lie!)! It was intentional and if it were reviewed by the League properly, he would be suspended for a game or 2.
I'm curious how the officiating will be making calls in Game 3. My sense is they will call the ticki-tacki stuff on the Panthers to give the Oilers PP's and ignore some calls that should be called on the Oilers. As of right now, the Oilers PP is powerless. The Oilers seemed to be outclassed playing the game even strength against the Panthers.
So frustrated he intentionally hurt the player that’s shutting him down
Barkov and the Cats Frustrate The McDoinkers !
Fixed the Title for ya !
It Should've been Dallas MATES this is over in five Mates
DBag, McClown, and Buttshard. The new 3 stooges!! Can't beat Sasha so they try to take him out. Real classy!!
drai is done with oilers. they going to lose a lot of pieces next season expect rebuild gg no cup for along time.
Drai is a rat.
And nuge dissapears again…..
Frustration is such a clean word to use to describe such a dirty hit!! !
BENNETT LEFT HIS FEET EVERY HIT HE MADE. DRAI BARELY JUMPED AND ELBOW WAS TUCKED. SMH IDIOTS ON HERE
Dirty Oilers😡
Florida is a better team. Hockey is a team game. Oilers have the best player on the planet, but its not about individual accolades here folks. Florida is the Team to beat! Go Panthers! Go Anton Lundell!!!!
What accountability? 1:16 lol
Leon is a cheap shot artist, can't stand him or Fogele. Lose with some dignity and class not Hanson Brother style losing. Both should be out for the rest of the series for intent to injure.
Draisaitl should be out for series or very least next 2 games (1 as makeup for missed major penalty, 2nd as bs min to equal 3-4 reg season games). Feels like a 5 game min if he did this in December (especially if he had a different name/team but did exact same act).
They aren't getting their gimme cookies on the powerplays, it must be frustrating. The Coilers powerplay has dominated the playoffs up until they hit Florida. If McDaddy and Drysidle don't get their powerplay goals, they aren't going to win. That must be frustrating. LOL
They're getting shutdown hard and the oilers are built around those two carrying the hell out of the team, so yeah I'm sure they're insanely frustrated at this point and it shows with that dirty elbow from Draisaitl, absolutely should eat a game for that, maybe more…
Florida by far have the most complete team in the entire finals. They are making the Oilers look like a one trick pony which has pulled up lame.
7-1 goal diffential in 2 games tells you all you need to know.
Draisaitl takes out the best player in this series
Definitely deserves 1 game suspension
The Panthers are built to win the cup. The Oilers are built to beat the LA Kings and 3rd string goalies. A team that can roll all 4 lines vs a team with 2 dangerous players. Series is far from over, but this hasn’t been close. Go Cats
Canadian media is nasty. Please cover the 3 oiler players that should be suspended.
Let your defense blast the puck if pansies get in the way and get hurt tough this is the Stanley cup play offs get rebounds pretty plays wont work in this series just brute force
Maybe they should step up? The big guns are not deserving the cup with their play in this series. McD needs to start passing again.
One thing that won’t change is those idiots in Edmonton yelling lets go Oilers regardless of the score
So many philosophers and experts in the comments section.
