Joined host Jessica Ng on CBC Radio Active this afternoon to preview the Edmonton Oilers game three match against the Florida Panthers. Full segment is here: CBC Radio Active (2024, June 12)
Topics we covered:
- The Oilers issues generating offence so far, and how the Panthers have been able to slow them down at even-strength and the powerplay.
- The overall play of Stuart Skinner, who is posting an abysmal 85% save percentage against Florida, well below the league average levels (~91%). Skinner needs to be league-average for the Oilers to have a chance this series.
- What the Oilers need to address to increase their odds of winning game three and four at home, including looking for favorable matchups with last change on home ice.
- Reasons for optimism that the Oilers can get themselves out of this current hole.
Thanks again to the team at CBC Edmonton for putting this all together!
