Oilers mic'd up say the Kings «can't defend» their offensive strategy

The Edmonton Oilers went into Los Angeles and took care of business with two wins, now taking a commanding 3-1 series lead. The Oilers have been a dominant team in all aspects, and they clearly know it.

In a mic'd up clip of the Oilers in game 3, the team continued to strategize a set up for back door passes to Zach Hyman. It worked for two goals, and the Oilers skated off saying the Kings just «Can't defend that!»


It's incredible to get a look into the on-ice discussions of the Oilers while the set up their incredibly lethal powerplay. Throughout Hyman's incredible 54 goal season, these back door passes have been key to the team's success, and it's proving to work in the playoffs just fine too.



In game 3, the Oilers cruised to a commanding 6-1 victory, and followed it up with a gutsier 1-0 win in game 4. Being able to win both the high scoring and low scoring games, and backed by a couple fantastic performances by Stuart Skinner, the Oilers are looking like a seriously dangerous team that could make a real run at the Cup. They'll have a prime opportunity to close out the first round with a victory at home on Wednesday night.
