They have to get to Oettinger at the other end. As I said in the WCF pre-series thread, Dallas is winning more on the road than home. Get into town, watch some game tape. Hypnotize Skinner into thinking he’s Brodeur and come home with at least a split. Through 13 games, Oettinger has had only three sub .900 games. That’s the biggest challenge in my opinion.
Whether it’s Pickard or Skinner, they’re at a big disadvantage vs Oettinger. No matter who is in, the entire team needs to be 100% committed to team defense.
