Nostalgic series match up

 

[BMOK33]

Dallas is only losing more than 1 game this series if Oettinger sucks, the PK sucks, or some combo of both

 

[Cypher]

Stars in 4

Waste of 8 days

 

[DearDiary]

Stars in 5, maybe 4 depending on Skinners mood. Unlike the Canucks and Kings, Stars will actually generate high danger chances

 

[le_sean]

Oilers finally playing against an NHL goalie and good forward depth? lol good luck

 

[Muffin]

Gonna have to root for the Oils. That's how much I can't stand that ***** Duchene.

 

[Dr Pepper]

I'll say Stars in 6.

Much as I'd like to see it, it probably won't be as easy as some think.

 

[bobholly39]

Oilers in 4

Dallas doesn't stand a chance. If they're super lucky they might steal away 1 win, but seems extremely unlikely

 

[Castle8130]

Dallas has got to be the favorite. They just defeated 2 really strong teams. They are very deep

 

[BMOK33]

Dallas and the Rangers are sort of in a war here to see who sits around less. I think the final might start fairly fast even if someone sweeps though since the season ended so late so maybe even a sweep you're off no more than 6 days

 

[FoxyClean]

I expect many clips of sad/angsty McDavid in a short series.

 

[Divine]

Struggling to give Edmonton a game.

Dallas in 4.

Dallas had to go through Vegas and Colorado. Edmonton had to go through LA and a Demko and later Boeser-less Vancouver.

 

[SeanMoneyHands]

Dallas in 4. They took out the defending cup champs and then the highest scoring team in the NHL. Round three for them will be by far the easiest opponent. Congrats to the Western Conference champs, Dallas.

 

[Nikki Potnick]

I mean Dallas has the advantage in offense, defense, goaltending, and coaching, so I think they'll win.

 

[HanSolo]

Stars in 5

 

[Xirik]

Vegas and the Av's were/are better teams then the Oilers and they've had time to rest. I say 5 Games cause Mcdavid can win one.

 

[snipes]

90s throwback series.

Dallas is favoured.

Oilers in 6. Let’s go baby!!!!

 

[TriFF51]

Tired of always saying 6 games. Dallas could end this in 5.

 

[SeanMoneyHands]

Dallas is four lines deep and is well rested. I expect a one-sided lopsided series.

 

[Kristopher Letang]

Dallas in 4 periods.

 

[Pierre from Orleans]

Oilers in 4

Dallas doesn't stand a chance. If they're super lucky they might steal away 1 win, but seems extremely unlikely

 

[Mirka the Turka]

I think Edmonton is tough for the Stars in the sense that McDavid and Draisaitl are gonna fry their pk

However, they won't do anything 5v5.

I believe this will continue a historic run for the Stars, who will be the first playoff team in history to face their toughest test in the 1st round and have easier matchups each subsequent round.

 

[Xirik]

I mean Dallas has the advantage in offense, defense, goaltending, and coaching, so I think they'll win.

Basically Mcdavid has to go full Michael Jordan and drag them past the Stars for them to have a chance.

 

[McRpro]

Well well well Dallas.....we meet again at last.
