Defensive Details Lacking in Loss to Leafs | Got Yer Back | Edmonton Oilers Postgame

The Edmonton Oilers were handed a 7–2 loss by the Toronto Maple Leafs on a night Mike Babcock felt should have brought a much better level of compete from his group. Ryan Rishaug, Jason Strudwick & Rob Brown break down Toronto’s success against the McDavid line, Edmonton’s mounting five-on-five defensive mistakes, the struggling bottom six and whether Babcock should have changed his matchups or split McDavid and Draisaitl. Devin Levi’s injury puts the crease firmly in Tristan Jarry’s hands, while the show also examines the scratches of Trent Frederic and Isaac Howard, Owen Michaels’ declining faceoff numbers and what Edmonton’s lineup could look like as injured players return.
