After a third-period collapse in Game 1, the Edmonton Oilers look to even the Western Conference Final tonight against the Dallas Stars at American Airlines Center. Puck drop is at 6:00 PM MT.
The Oilers led 3-1 entering the third period on Wednesday but surrendered five unanswered goals, losing 6-3. Dallas capitalized on Edmonton’s penalties, scoring three power-play goals in a span of 5:26. Despite strong performances—at least during the first 40 minutes—from Leon Draisaitl, Ryan Nugent-Hopkins, and Connor McDavid, the Oilers couldn’t maintain their lead.
