EDGE Analysis
Barbashev provided near-immediate responses to two of Leon Draisaitl's tallies. After a solid first round (one goal, two assists in five games), Barbashev is back in a top-six role to begin the second round. He has five points, 12 shots on net, 19 hits and a plus-3 rating through six playoff contests, and his strong two-way play will be key in containing the Oilers' stars.
