Evan Bouchard accidentally revealed Kings' weakness against Draisaitl's wishes
Bouchard's game winner was set up by a slick passing play with Draisaitl seconds after a faceoff at center ice - a tactical dissection of the Kings' defence.
In a postgame interview with Sportsnet, Bouchard did confirm that the Oilers had identified a weakness in the Kings system through film study on the first two games.
Leo actually called that play. It was a good eye from him, we were pre-scouting it and it all around worked out.
Yeah, watching film from the first two games. You always want to throw something different at them.
Now in both Game 1 and 3, the Oilers have come with their reputably explosive offence that can take over games and win series. This set play from Draisaitl and Bouchard exemplifies the Oilers' skill taking over a massive moment in a must win game.
