‘McDavid & Draisaitl are best two players on the planet’: Button on Oilers Game 1 win
TSN Director of Scouting Craig Button joins SC with Jay Onrait to discuss the late-game heroics of Connor McDavid and Leon Draisaitl in Game 1 of the Stanley Cup Final and a second-period effort from Stuart Skinner that helped propel the Oilers into overtime and ultimately take the lead in the series.

Not sure why Conner's hands would be on the surgeon, but I agree with CB that McDavid always delivers!
Is Craig Button related to Gene Principe?
The Oilers looking so confident. It looks like whatever will come they will find a solution. As I said last year The Oilers are like a genius kid with a Rubiks Cube, when they have the solution they crush it-
Get a grip, McDouche and Dryeyes aren't ever winning this cup.
i don’t wanna see marchand lose his third final:(
Thor moves up on the play with alarming regularity, such an intelligent hockey player. Remember those blasts from the faceoff circle last years playoffs
Toronto fans must just be in awe that there are actual star players that show up and perform when it counts
BUTTON is knowledgeable
As it should be, the best player in the sport should, should win 🏆
FRIDAY nights 🌙, i in my school days was a pizza 🍕 delivery driver, of course FRIDAY-Saturday nights 🌙 till 3-4 am.
even before mcdavid showed up on the score sheet he was locking it down defensively
Hey Craig, don’t you remember you were talking down and don’t believe Oilers will make it to this final series.
What an awkward ending
If McDavid scored on half of his posts, he'd have 70 a season.
I hope Oilers win one more game and claim the title while McD scores the winning goal.
BROOOOOOOOOOOOOO Button is a phony talking crap about oilers all season long and now this how does the guy still have a job
McDavid is a good player.
Oil in 5! They will not be denied
McD … OT set up…. Goal….. no celebration. 3 more to go.
MacKinnon is still better than Leon. He’s definitely top 5 tho
Craig said we wouldn't make it past LA in the first round, Look at us now!
Yes
That ending was awkward.
Glad they kept skinner in the game even 3-1 and let him bring them back and they believe in him now.
Skinner is awesome as he stepped up to help the Oilers win opening game 1.
Hey that was a good game ! McDavid was good. Leon Dristol was stupe😂 Go Oilers Go!!!
Draisaitl is not number two he is number 4
Not a fan of an Overtime Power Play Home Ice Goal for the win…The ice was tilted after the manufactured Penalty Call against Florida…
"From the arena?" Can't TSN say Rogers as in Rogers Place?
Oilers beat the refs and Florida in this game
Not a pretty win by the Oilers but a win nonetheless. As much as I would like to believe the Oilers will sweep the Panthers, I see this series ending no earlier than game 5.
Guys , you are yet in too early to publish that, as fact.
They need first to win something big.
What a stupid ass ending to this video. Did I hear that comment commentator say that the Panthers have to stay hard? Do they realize what they’re saying?
Anybody care to guess what would've happened last night if Pete DeBoer coached the Oilers?
Hey Toronto you were right Matthews is better than mcdavid lmfao!
"Craig Button is the worst analyst on the planet."
I too can make wild, off the collar claims. Mine just might actually be better than Button's.
My opinion is the exact opposite: I prefer the Oilers are a goal behind going into the third. It’s a blast watching them fireback.
Skinner is making a really strong case for the Conn Smythe.
What a strange ending? "Take the night off?" (then crickets…..) Who is running this show anyway? Should have kept Dan and let Jay go!!
Florida will lose game 2 but storm back to win game 7 after taking out some key Edmonton players with cheap shots.
Toronto losers, stop; there's no comparison between the Oilers & Laffs 😂
Gretzky-level passing from McDavid. What a privilege to be able to watch him and Draisaitl. One of the best duos in NHL history.
Button is right on the button
Oilers are cup bound 🏆
Two guys have to chase McDavid, most minutes on ice, most points, most assists … he just finds higher levels.
YES ! The BEST 2 GOAL S U K S IN the NHL !!! BLATANT FAVORITISM !!! LOOK at an OILER, GET PENALIZED !!! OF COURSE YOU WILL WIN, WHEN YOU HAVE the REFS IN YOUR BACK POCKET and their ALL PAID OFF !!! EVERYTIME I RE-ENTERED the ROOM, OILERS WERE ON a POWER PLAY !!! REFS CALLING PENALTIES IN OVERTIME, OTHER than a BLATANT CUT TO FACE. IS 100% B/S !!! GOOD REFS WILL LET the PLAYERS DECIDE the OUTCOME of the GAME ! NOT the REF DECIDING the OUTCOME ! BLO ODY TRAGEDY , WHAT these REFS are DOING to the GAME of HOCKEY !!!
