Tuesday night, Jordan Eberle and Ryan Strome faced their former teams for the first time since they were traded for each other as the Islanders hosted the Oilers.

Eberle scored New York's lone goal, but it wasn't enough as Edmonton won the game 2-1 in overtime.

As entertaining as the game was, Casey Cizikas mic'd up for the game may have been more entertaining and there was one conversation that stood out in particular that hockey fans seemed to enjoy.

#CaseyCizikas was #MicdUp for the game against the #Oilers and he had an interesting conversation with the ref during the game.

In the third period, an Islanders play fell on the puck and Zack Kassian tried to dig the puck free.

Cizikas felt like there should have been a penalty on the play, but the official didn't want to send both players off and make it 4-on-4 with the game tied 1-1.

The one thing we can't figure out, though, is who Cizikas says he'd take. We think it might be McDavid, though, because there is no "Johnny" on the Oilers roster and Cizikas' line played against McDavid's line during the game.
