There’s a constant feature plaguing the series between the Chicago Blackhawks and the Edmonton Oilers, and that’s the ice.
With two late starts in Edmonton, it was obvious the Chicago Blackhawks were going to have to plan for ice conditions as well as the dynamic duo and of Connor McDavid and Leon Draisaitl.
Watching the games, it’s clear the ice isn’t in the best shape. Several games a day are being played in Edmonton’s Rogers Place, and the effect makes for some awkward in-game moments.
