Inside look at pre-game speech by Jay WOODCROFT

The Edmonton Oilers faced off against the Vegas Golden Knights in a highly competitive game, with the series tied at 1-1.

The intensity of the game was evident as multiple fights broke out on the ice, causing frustration among both teams and some fans.

However, Head Coach Jay Woodcroft provided valuable insight on how to achieve victory.

He encourages the team to prioritize quick movements, be the first to take control, and focus on possession and setting the pace of the game, rather than striving for perfection.

Following these strategies can lead to a successful outcome.

I think Connor McDavid has no issues with that statement.
