mcdavid won the draw and game one is underway 
the lineups are brought to you by Orcin for   Edmonton as the shots right on from Kyle 
Granlin and squeezed by Skitter the same 18   skaters couldn’t handle it and it’s played ahead 
by Duchain to the line but not out by Robertson   here’s Dry Cidle kicked out by Auter and Hav 
this postseason they spend so much time does   Edmonton in the offensive zone thomas Harley put 
it right on Skinner he made a stick save man Perry   knows how to play the game still and not speedy 
at all but has such great hockey sense conor   McDavid put it right on and on another big stop 
venig got knocked behind the net by Zack Heyman   be a little nervous that he’s going to break 
out for a fivegoal series well here he walks   right around Essa Lindell and after Uttinger 
stops that look at the speed and the drag cool   move aer stops that and then he’s got to get Zack 
Heyman on the rebound as Heyman always around the   front of the net on the WMAN his defense partner 
went crashing toward the net edmonson carrying the   play here early heyman passed it off nan Hopkins 
didn’t get a lot on the shot labushkin pinches in   then it went past Sam Steel he gets it back from 
Marchman marchment nice one touch pass down low   sean put it right on the stick here’s Hint who has 
three power play goals tied for the playoff lead   ben centers one knocked down by Ren and then he 
put it in the crease and it was swept away from   harm running out of real estate at the blue line 
as he’s harassed by Johnston mcdavid trying to   spin in the high slot he stumbled down now Dryidle 
scores leon Didle makes it one- nothing Edmonton   play alive here look Wyatt Johnston’s got him 
in position but his his stick isn’t on the puck   dry Cidle uses his size to shield the puck keep 
it in the zone and then as he’s he comes around   the outside he gets inside of Johnston again 
no match physically here for Johnston as he’s   got doesn’t have the stick strength to stop the 
entire East will be on TNT and we’ll have every   game of the Western Conference Final either on 
ESPN or ABC sunday game three in Edmonton is   on ABC an afternoon game mcdavid tried to wrap 
around odder held the post now it’s on net and   the puck was free with Nen Hopkins right out 
in front nuttinger down and out made some big   stops here’s another one here as he gets the 
left pad out on this rebound darnell Nurse   Clingberg for dry side lost the handle it might 
be a breakaway tyler Sean in alone he scores dry Cidle comes off the draw he’s got this 
planned play to get the puck as he turns along   the blue line he loses it and Sean jumps on it 
three months out with hip surgery sean’s taken   some time to get his legs and quickness back 
wman went to line him up and miss clingberg   did not miss and now Robertson 35 goals in the 
regular season centering pass and a great chance   for Wyatt Johnston from the slot and Cody Cece 
came over from San Jose for a couple of draft   picks here’s McDavid flying in save made by 
Otinger and then the rebound by Nan Hopkins   to cut McDavid off so he can’t get all the way 
across the front of the net that’s breathtaking   he goes rolled it in tried to get it in deep and 
whiffed on it pulax floated bushard sends it a   dry sight now 15 goals in games one almost another 
left pad save made byer edmonton in these playoffs   6 for 24 on the power play but as Ray said 0 for 
14 on the road six for 10 at home and going back   to the end of the regular season they’re open for 
their last 25 power plays away from Rogers plate   it comes right to Nan Hopkins and he scores 
fortunate ricochet right to Ryan Nen Hopkins   the Oilers take advantage of it mcdavid to Dry 
Cidle on the entry that’s a tough catch by Dry   Cidle but he controls the puck and as McDavid 
reaches through he wants to find Cory Perry   in the middle of the ice the Stars deflected 
away and it comes right to Ryan Nan Hopkins   and Todd Coulson circles tried to center it was 
blocked by Harley bousard played it back for Dry   Cidle it comes to Buchard from Nan Hopkins and he 
scores evan Bard a perfect shot top corner 3 to   one Edmonton gets in the playoffs and it’s like he 
finds another gear he locks into a game that has   to be played at this time of the year and more 
inexperienced Bousard would have one time that   puck here he holds it and takes it into a closer 
shooting position and this is the third goal dallas does have three third period comebacks in 
these playoffs three of their eight wins after   they had just four third period comeback 
wins the entire regular season hasten and   scores through a screen a power play goal 
in a one-goal game 23 minutes an assist   this power play marker gets by Matias Yanmar 
when he misses the block you can see clearly   that Skinner looks to his left around the screen 
of Marchman he never catches up to this granland   will go back to Hasten in the simple wrist shot 
more power play goals than they had in the Western   Conference final against Edmonton last year in 
six games edmonson trying to get it back quickly   and a save made by Attinger shot attempt by Sean 
deflected wide off the stick of Walman then a good   stick on defense by Bushard hastin and moved it 
quickly now it hit the crossbar the official on   the goal line said no goal and now he’s being 
overruled granland the power play goal opens   up the power play male Granland shot it’s going 
to hit the back bar you see the netting pop off   jason Robertson with the screen skinner can’t 
catch up to it and Granland who had a hat-tick   against Winnipeg earlier in the last series 
scores the second power play goal for the Stars   dallas has excelled on the power play chance 
for Dallas to take the lead duchain dropped it   back hasten and moved it quickly brandon in shot 
comes to Duchady and a wide open goal and they score one of these guys going to jump out 
for the Dallas Stars and it’s Matt Duchain   this shot misses the net it hits the outside 
of the net nobody seems to know where it is   oh that’s a really nice play by Prope Hint 
hint is going to shoot the puck he’s lying   on the ice but when he sees that Duchain is 
right behind him he leaves it for him and   Duchain watch Hint he just picks his stick 
up the original save he had to get out of   the way as they so often do when they really 
need one here’s Sean off the cross ice feed   from Marchman duchaane tried to throw it out in 
front duchain threw it in front it cars to Sean   that one goes up in the air and a takeaway by 
Hasten in ahead for Bishell with some room across   the line four on two for the moment bishell down 
low stopped at point blank range now Aander Kane   stcher did well to stay on side had the stretch 
to do it out in front backhand by Connor Brown   wound up off the back wall but minus three 
tonight a power play explosion by Dallas   to turn a 3-1 deficit into a 4 to3 lead here they 
come again steel with Sean steel back hands and scores sam Steel has moved to the forefront 
he played a key role in the win over Winnipeg   in game six here he takes a loose puck 
his back hand is stopped by Skinner as   he gets into the middle of the ice and 
it bounces off of the Skinner comes out   of the net they pull the goalie down by 
two 320 to go and that is shot into the   empty net essel the length of the ice 
an empty net goal and it’s six to three ethel Lindell will get the loose puck and 
from about 185 ft bullseye fans on their   feet this is going to be back-to- back wins

  1. Conner McDavid is the new Captain Serious since Jonathan Toews , he never smiles just like the latter. P.S. Toews has won Stanley Cups so maybe the new Captain Serious can follow his lead.😊

  2. Can’t stand the Oilers. As a Kings fan, pull this one out Stars! I wanna see McDavid and the Soilers crying in the locker room just like last year! FTO’s!

  3. Goalies playing on their knees should be abolished. To me they look lazy or since they are all 7 feet tall the legs get tired standing up?

  4. It is funny that all remaining teams have atleast 1 Fin 🇫🇮 player in their team. So ill be celebrating lord stanley this year no matter who wins!! Go Suomi!!🍻💪🇫🇮

  5. Dallas STARS name has a new meaning. You don't have 2-4 star players in the group. All of those guys are truly stars. 6 goals, 6 players. In the hole playoff season they have like 13 shooters. That's depth.

  6. I wish they'd let the team announcers do these games, and the home broadcast is the one that gets nationally televised. The playoff announcers are painful to listen to for 10 minutes of highlights, let alone a full game. And its the playoffs, the brawl at the end IS a highlight, why are we cutting that??

  7. Edmonton, you take a 3-1 lead into the third and somehow get blown out 6-3. Utter embarrassment. The cup isn't coming back to Canada this year, not with this Edmonton team.

  8. McDavid is probably going to demand 20 million to stay in Edmonton after this cup-less season. They are going to have to get rid of some players to make room for his salary.
