Draisaitl scored on the power play at 14:51 to cut it to 2-1. McDavid took the puck in the right corner, skated towards the net, then fed a pass back to Draisaitl in the slot for a one-timer past Askarov glove side.
“It is everyone for sure. I think everyone is making the wrong reads right now, maybe a little bit fragile on our decision-making,” Draisaitl said. “Got to find a way to fix it.”
Barclay Goodrow made it 3-1 at 17:05. John Klingberg‘s one-timer from the right point rebounded to the left of Ingram, and Goodrow swept the puck by Ingram’s glove.
Bouchard cut it to 3-2 at 15:49 of the second period. McDavid fired a seam pass from the left boards to Bouchard at the right of the crease and beat Askarov over his left pad.
