  1. I really don't understand how people are treating Oilers as some massive underdog here. At best it's a 50/50 series, and even then I'm going against what I actually think, which is that Dallas aren't even close to being as good of a team as people are making them out to be. They did beat the Avs pretty convincingly, but this is not the Avs team that won the cup. But whatever, I guess we'll see, and if Dallas does beat Oilers, I'm rooting for them to win the cup. They deserve it after dropping Vegas out of the playoffs.

  2. As an Oilers fan, Dallas scares me the most. They have all four lines rolling, defence is amongst the best, and Ottenger has another level. I remember the Calgary series in 2022 even though they lost, Ott was crazy good.

  3. As a huge oilers fan, I really think this will go to game 6 or game 7 and I think Both teams have a 50/50% chance to win! Stars in 6 games against the oilers and Oilers in 7 games against the Stars. It's going to be a great series and good luck Dallas Stars and LETS GO OILERS!!!!!!!

  4. I don't trust Edmonton's defense and goaltending. Dallas takes it and this will be the easiest opponent they face most likely.

  5. Stars in 5 games, Oilers are the same as the previous years. They've got a tough time beating the Canucks without Demko 😂

  6. If Dallas can put up 35-40 SOG and have 12+ blocked shots every night, theyll win. The caveat is that if there are referees on the ice, get your swim trunks on and head to the backyard, cuz Dallas is gonna get hosed.

  7. Stars knocked out the reigning Cup Champs Vegas and the Cup Champs Avs from 2 years ago. To me this is the Stars series to lose! The Stars have it most where it counts in the playoffs, D and Goaltending. DeBoer has the coaching advantage over Rookie coach Knoblauch.

    Some ppl might make comparisons to Ovechkin winning in 2018, but the Oilers don’t have a Carlson/Orlov on the back end and Skinner is no where near as good as Holtby was.

    I really think the Oilers are about to get a big reality check on why Ken Holland has not done a good enough job in needed areas to improve the team.

  8. as a Stars fan I am SCARED of Edmonton, since McDavid has been with them they always seem to have Dallas number

  9. Jake Oettinger is the better goaltender right now than Stuart Skinner. Yes, the Oilers have some great scorers like Hyman, Draisaitl, and McDavid. But the Stars have the better goalie and more scoring depth. Stars in 7.

  10. I would remind some ppl the reality in a Conference Final matchup of being too reliant on special teams can hurt a team. 2018 Caps vs Bolts. Bolts had an extremely dangerous PP just like the Oilers have now. Caps won that series by not getting into penalty trouble to give the Bolts PP’s and were the better even strength team.

    Oilers are at a disadvantage playing even strength. Skinner will be on the hot seat facing Stars shooters he didn’t encounter in the previous two series. A goalie who has a playoff career .882 SV% is about to embark on a WCF nightmare. There is only so much you can cover up bad goaltending in the playoffs!

  11. The refs will drag this series out to six games with some ticky tacky calls against Dallas but having watched a lot of these two teams recently, there is no way outside of referee corruption or unfortunate injury that Edmonton bests Dallas over seven games

  12. I hope the oilers and rangers meet in the finals.Mcdavid at MSG with the crowd going crazy during the anthems for game 1🤯
