Game four was, well&#8230; far from ideal.

The Oilers came out flat off the start and fell behind 2-0. They chased the game the rest of the way. When they had good looks, Jonathan Quick was there to shut them down.
It was a frustrating one, to say the least, so Woz and I hopped on the YouTube machine to offer up some thoughts on what went wrong, and what the Oilers need to fix.
There was lots to talk about, too. We broke down the game, mulled over what on-earth goaltender interference is, and if the Oilers shut themselves down.
We also dabbled into the woes of the Oilers&#8217; bottom-six, the Bison King Jesse Puljujarvi, questionable officiating and what the Oilers need to change for game five.
