Oilers HC Knoblauch becomes honest about the first goal of the Final of the Stanley of Connor McDavid in match 5 of the loss of panthers

Connor McDavid and the Edmonton Oilers The Florida panthers were stopped by the house ice on Saturday night.

With all the impulse derived from a victory of 5-4 overtime in the match 4 only two days earlier, the Oilers had a key opportunity to take control of the Stanley Cup finals and give two cracks to win the Cup.

Instead, Edmonton was completely closed by Florida and its structure, falling 5-2 and now on the edge of the elimination in game 6. One of the few positives that comes from the loss was the superstar McDavid Connor Commenting on his first goal of the series in a beautiful movement to beat Sergei Bobrovsky.

McDavid's main coach Kris Knoblauch was asked about the goal and his general play on Sunday. The Edmonton Oilers shared their availability of supports on YouTube.

“ You know, I think there has been a lot of scoring opportunities for him, and it is good to see that last night he scored a very nice goal.But, yes, I have no problems with his game.He obviously, our team is very based on him and Leon and how they are playing, but I think it is a controlled control for everyone, '' said Knoblauch (4:50).

“And it will not be a half -season game against a team without playoff, you know, when there is, you know, sometimes it has had 10 or 12 punctuation. You know, these numbers are obviously reduced. Played against a good team like Florida, but I think Connor has been one of our best players every night and this is what we expect,” added Knoblach.

Despite the lack of goal of the score sometimes, McDavid has accumulated 33 points (seven goals, 26 assists) in 21 games this post -empowerment.

This goal put McDavid on the elite company

Connor McDavid's goal in match 5 was the 150th point of his playoff career so far, reaching the mark in just 95 appearances.

Only two of the elders of all time, Wayne Gretzky and Mario Lemieux, reached the milestone in fewer games. Sportsnet shared a graph of the stunning feat on x (before Twitter).

“Connor McDavid is the third fastest player to reach 150 Playoff points,” Sportsnet wrote.

However, McDavid's main concern is the end result and did not go in the way he and his team would have expected.

He and the Oilers will now have their season on the line 6 of the Stanley Cup finals against the Panthers Tuesday night in Florida. The puck falls at 8pm east in Arant Bank Arena.
