      Last time Dallas made the finals they played a Alberta team, then the avalanche, then Vegas and lost the finals
      This year they played Vegas first, then the Avs, and now another Alberta team meaning everything is reversed therefore Dallas wins the cup.

    To be honest, for the Oilers v Stars series, two very important players to watch are Bouchard and Hyman. Obviously McDrai is the duo that will draw all the attention, but a good net-front guy is really hard to defend against, and Hyman is severely underrated in that category. And Bouchard, although not a defensive stalwart, but he's such an offensive threat that you cannot afford to cheat at all and collapse to the front of the net. The Oilers powerplay is so effective because every player on the ice is highly dangerous, and as much as you may have a few preferred looks, you cannot afford to cheat to one guy. As an interesting note, Dallas doesn't have a single player over a point per game in the playoffs so far. Edmonton has 5.

    Everyone keeps saying the stars have the better depth, yet if you look at the stat sheets and the advanced stats, that's just not true at all. And when you factor in that Edmonton's top say 4 players are VASTLY better than anything Dallas has,.. the Stars I do believe has the better starting goalie but Skinner can also go on hot streaks for stretches.

    Well folks…Special teams often decide playoff series, and here again, the Oilers have a clear advantage. Edmonton's power play has been the on of the best in the league, operating at an exceptional efficiency. The combination of McDavid, Draisaitl, Ryan Nugent-Hopkins, Zach Hyman and Evan Bouchard on the power play has been lethal. The Oilers Team talents and their ability to capitalize on man-advantage situations will be a significant factor. Additionally, the Oilers' penalty kill has been solid, effectively neutralizing opposing power plays and turning potential liabilities into strengths. The Stars, while competent, do not match the Oilers' special teams prowess, giving Edmonton an edge in crucial special teams battles. OILERS in 6 👍💪🏆

    No hate but everyone is sleeping on the Oilers. With that PK percentage they can shut down a powerplay and really make the other team work for there goals. And on the other side if you take a penalty against Edmonton they will kill you on the powerplay. To beat Edmonton you’ll have to do it 5 on 5 and that is Edmonton’s weakness but I think Edmonton matches up well with Dallas.

And the Oilers can most certainly can beat the Stars. And the Oilers suddenly found some decent structure in the last two wins over the canucks that was pretty much non existent all year against better teams. If they keep that going Dallas will have to step it up.
