Zach Hyman had two goals and an assist, Connor McDavid added two goals, and the Oilers beat the Stars 6-1 on Sunday night to take a 2-1 lead in their NHL Western Conference final series.
Evan Bouchard, with a goal and an assist, and John Klingberg also scored for the Oilers, with Ryan Nugent-Hopkins adding three assists. Stuart Skinner made 33 saves in the Edmonton net.
Jason Robertson scored for the Stars, who are hoping to avoid being knocked out in the third round by the Oilers for a second consecutive season. Jake Oettinger stopped 18 shots.
The Oilers lost Game 1, but have outscored the Stars by a 9-1 score over the last two games.
Nugent-Hopkins now has multipoint efforts in every game of the series, becoming the only Oiler in franchise history other than Wayne Gretzky with more than one point in the first three games of a conference final.
“You have to have dominant nights, you have to have nights where maybe your goalie is better than theirs,” McDavid said after the game. “You have to find ways to win different games different ways, and we did again tonight.”
Skinner was impressive once again in the Edmonton net, making 33 saves to improve to 4-4 in postseason play, his first victory in the playoffs that wasn’t a shutout.
“For him, to be able to battle back the way he has is just really impressive,” said Hyman. “I think a lot of people were counting him out, and he came in and has been phenomenal and a big reason we’re up 2-1.”
The Stars were without forward Roope Hintz, who was tied for second in team scoring entering the game. Hintz had to be helped off the ice late in the third period of Game 2 after he was slashed on the top of the left foot by Oilers defenseman Darnell Nurse.
