Had their chances. Oh well.

Stars to the Stanley Cup Finals confirmed

I feel like if we won game 1 then we would lose the series… and we don't want that obviously

Anyone watching the first OT knew it was only a matter of time. I'm surprised it took Edmonton as long as it did. The Oilers were far quicker, more aggressive, and played much better defense (at least in OT). Every time the Stars had the puck on the Oiler's side, the defense was able to almost immediately gather 3-4 defenders on the puck. But the Stars' defense seemed content with 2 when the Oilers had the puck in their zone.

I guess I'll never know hockey well enough to understand why you dump it deep only to give up the puck 90% of the time. Edmonton didn't do that but the Stars did. Brought back horrific memories of Ken Hitchcock. Was it due to the Stars being tired, lazy, or both? Maybe neither, but it is a fair question.

Nothing embarrassing about that effort. Just disappointing we didn't get a pp goal. Losing game 1 is apparently our thing.

Edmonton played better Defense than I expected. I thought they would be easier to score on than Vegas and Colorado.

Then again……we looked flat and sloppy all game.

The Oilers were better 5 on 5 tonight. Have to get that fixed since we all know that Edmonton will get theirs on the power play eventually.
