The Oilers had a commanding 3-1 lead midway through the third period of Game 1 against the Kings before things fell apart, and Los Angeles tied the game late before winning it in overtime. Should Edmonton be concerned about the loss, or is it just a blip? TSN Hockey’s Martin Biron has more.

I don’t think so if they don’t give the kings 7 power play they’re good
Oilers in 7.
Leon with 60 playoff points in 38 games. what a beast.
It’s fine. Defence was a little concerning but no one said it would be an easy series. Next game’s definitely a must win though.
It’s a concern that once again the officials had their heads up their ass. In the third before giving Bouch his penalty they ignored La assaulting Drai. Then in overtime they ignore Foegle getting obviously tripped and call a marginal one on Desharneis. La became angels after the first period somehow….
Oilers in 6
6 power plays given up will cost any team the game. Just a blip
They now need to go at least 4-2 in this series to survive so yea the pressures on
Even last year they been losing game 1s all the way to the 3rd round lol
Edmonton may win this series anyway, but media needs to stop yapping about McDavid and how he can't be stopped
Not concerned, just don’t take dumb penalties in playoffs.
Blip. F&*&÷ the refs
This is a blip, they really were the better team and really should’ve won but it’s hard when you take 7 penalties especially one with 2 minutes left and one on OT
It took the leafs 7 months to get a 5 on 3 this year. Edmonton gets one in the first 10 min of the playoffs. Fuck the refs
Sweep !
the refs were the best part of the game. They offciated very well. Love from Winnipeg 👍
The team that actually has heart & cares about winning beat the team that only cares about padding their stats. What a surprise.
Why in the world are u making a video about a game 1 loss, I’ll never understand why people blow game 1 results out of proportion good or bad 😂
Not alarming. Just play exactly the same game, take less than 7 penalties, and it's an easy win.
Boston didn’t blip so I’m concerned.
Concern.
Oilers dominated the whole game.
Here’s an idea or a scenario…give the Oilers 6 power plays and one in OT and see if the scenario is reversed. Just saying
Oilers have never won the first game in the salary cap era, and look how they responded to it last year, I'm not worried or concerned yet tbh.
We've been warning yall, it's not worth ignoring but one game is still only one game. See if they step it up next game but hopefully their fans get the karma they deserve and drop another at home. Couldn't even finish their beers before throwing on the ice, boys can't hang
its one game. too early to say anything
Unreal… No credit given to the Kings at all 😂😂😂 Go Kings Go!!!
We really don't know until Game 2. The Oilers were easily the better team, but also drew lots of dumb penalties and were nonchalant going into the 3rd period when it should've been a sealed deal. These things absolutely need to be addressed if they don't want a repeat of things tomorrow. But, if they can address their discipline issues they're still the favorite to win this series and the next one imo.
The refs were one sided. And we dominated the first 50 mins
