Can Edmonton withstand Dallas' offensive prowess?

The Edmonton Oilers are an offensive superpower, but the Dallas Stars are one of the most well-balanced teams in the league. Will the Oilers be able to withstand the Stars on both ends of the ice?

It wasnt just skinner. The canucks played a certain kind of game, low event, that the stars dont play. People r sleeping on the oilers.

[@Maxharddrive64]

Being an Outsider looking in. I'll say this. If Dallas has Cup aspirations Theywould be very wise not to put Edmonton on the power play... ever

[@yazamuto]

Colorado’s PP is just as terrifying, and Dallas did okay on the kill in that series.

[@andrewryba7864]

stars are better than van but oiler match up better against the stars than they did against vancouver.

[@truckbros35]

I’m a Stars fan since the 90s, so I have seen what the Oilers can do with just one player but I’m taking the Stars in 6!

[@pyRoy6]

Don't count the Oilers out. Their underlying numbers this season were as good as Dallas's, and even Skinner's numbers are comparable to Oettinger's (if you disregard the beginning of the season haha).

[@steveaustin-kp6px]

good luck dallas will win in 6 or 7 games

[@pyRoy6]

@@steveaustin-kp6px I think that's a reasonable prediction. It would also be reasonable to pick the Oilers in 6 or 7, especially given Oettinger's illness. What's less likely is either team taking it in 5 or 4.

[@tarzantarugo3113]

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 ability of the Oilers Team, the 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 I’m 6 👍💪🏆

[@dragoniv]

Reg season, Stars scored 298GF, 234GA, +64. Oilers 294GF, 237GA, +57. Stars are better than the Canucks, but not that much better than the Oilers. This series should be close.

[@republica7337]

There is a history between Dallas and Edmonton. The Oilers have something to prove. Special teams will play a huge role in the outcome. I hope Dallas is just as arrogant as back in the day. I think the Oilers will bring some reality to the Stars thinking.

Bouchard is the first defenseman in NHL History to reach the 20 point mark before the 3rd round of the playoffs. Edmonton has three 20 point players already and thats also never been done, even their 4th and 5th leading scorers have produced more than the Stars top guys. Dallas,.... i just dont think they can keep up with the Oilers and their many weapons. So..... i have no idea what the title of this video means because its completely backwards 🤣

[@SS-iv7wv]

Oil could have Picker and Skinner in at the same time and will still lose. Don't Canadian fans believe in defense or goaltending? They're not going far against a deep Dallas team. Connor or no Connor.

[@republica7337]

I would say Colorado has a top line very similar to the oilers. Maybe better with Makar , but at least comporable and Dallas really shut them down. The oilers haven’t faced anyone like Dallas up to this point and they struggled .

[@roberjohnsmith]

@@yanboyao7825 I'm 100 percent serious. Look at the numbers oilers have been putting up offensively. Even RNH is putting up big boy points. Silovs played amazing and robbed many goals and the oil still scored 3-6 goals per game against then. So many people producing offense right now. I don't know how you think I'm joking. As if edmonton isn't the most offensively talented team since the coaching change a few weeks into the season. Why would I be joking, genuinely curious

[@tseliteiv]

I think the difference is going to be the special teams. Dallas has a terrible PK and Edmonton has the best PP. Whenever Edmonton gets a PP, it's going to almost be a for sure thing. 5on5 I think they're going to look fairly evenly matched.

[@jerrypfackler]

It could be a difference if the Oilers get to their PP. Dallas is the least penalized team by far.
