Oilers    5

Stars     1

In what GM Junya had to have felt was going to be a series closing game his Dallas Stars instead got a rude awakening! Connor McDavid was moved to play on the second line and both himself and line mate M.Backlund appeared to enjoy playing together as they both had 3 first period points. B.Bishop wasn't nearly as sharp early in this game and as has been discussed numerous times already this playoffs, Dallas does not play well from behind! The good news for GM Junya is Bishop was out of this game early and will be 100% for game 7....the bad news is there will now be a game 7 and it is in Edmonton facing a heathy full roster as well. This series had the look and feel that it would go the way of the Stars but now with game 7 in Oil country and the re-emergence of McDavid this can go either way....Advantage Oilers!
