Yes, indeed, old and ugly habits from the 2017-18 season bit the Edmonton Oilers hard in the team’s 5-2 loss to the New Jersey Devils in Sweden. McDavid made major contributions on six scoring chances, five of them at even strength, making him by far the most dangerous Oilers attacker. The McDavid line often buzzed the offensive zone, with all three players combining on smart passes and aggressive forechecking. Also set up Jesse Puljujarvi late in the second period and Kailer Yamamoto in the third for dangerous slot shots. Notably Klefbom was out of position on a two-on-one leading to a dangerous slot shot by Taylor Hall.
