The Edmonton Oilers are heading back to the Stanley Cup Final! For the second straight season, they’ve eliminated the Dallas Stars in the Western Conference Final—this time doing it in just five games. Game 5 was electric from the opening puck drop, with the Oilers exploding for two goals on their first two shots. The blitz forced Dallas head coach Pete DeBoer to burn his timeout and pull Jake Oettinger just minutes into the game. But the damage was already done.

Connor McDavid led the way with another dominant performance, the powerplay continued to deliver, and despite a push from Dallas in the third to make it 4-3, it was Evander Kane who silenced the Stars with a massive insurance goal to seal it. Edmonton walks away with a 6-3 win and a trip back to the Stanley Cup Final—this time looking for redemption.

We’ll break down everything from last night with our scoring summary, One Big Take, Giant Question, and dive into some early storylines ahead of the Cup Final rematch between the Oilers and Panthers.

We're also thrilled to welcome Jeff Marek, host of The Sheet, to help us break down the entire Western Conference Final series and preview what’s shaping up to be an electric rematch in the Stanley Cup Final. Jeff will give us his thoughts on how the Oilers managed to take down the Stars in just five games, what’s impressed him most about Edmonton’s evolution this postseason, and what the Oilers will need to do differently against a relentless Florida Panthers squad looking for back-to-back championships.

Plus, we’re joined by former NHL defenseman Jason Demers to get his thoughts on Game 5, the Oilers’ playoff run so far, and what they’ll need to do to flip the script against Florida in the Final.
