Sheldon Keefe has been fired by the Leafs.

Yeah, saw that. Inevitable. They are worse off than the kings.

i was really mad at that game. skinner sucks. how do we not score there. game 2 and 4 were the only playoff feeling games.

It’s just so funny because the Kings whole approach to beating the Oilers is the exact opposite of what actually works against them.

The Kings employ a passive reactive system, you don’t even need to use the technical term 1-3-1 to describe it. It goes beyond the formation. It’s the mindset.

Let the Oilers do almost anything they want as long as it comes from outside the faceoff dots and wait for them to make a mistake. That’s it. Stand around and wait.

With this approach you’re forcing your defenders to make the right play every single time waiting on the chance that the Oilers make a mistake. And if you do pounce on that one mistake you better score because if you don’t you aren’t in any position to generate more offensive chances.

Whoever came up with this approach just completely failed at correctly scouting the Oilers.
