Offensive Outburst Gives Oilers Lead

- The Oilers built an early lead by scoring twice in 36 seconds, with Evan Bouchard opening the scoring and Connor McDavid adding the second goal.
- Zach Hyman scored twice and assisted once, Ryan Nugent-Hopkins contributed three assists, and goalie Stuart Skinner stopped 33 shots to earn his first playoff win without recording a shutout.
- Nugent-Hopkins is the only Oiler other than Wayne Gretzky with multi-point efforts in the first three conference final games, while Dallas struggled without injured Roope Hintz and goalie Jake Oettinger stopped 18 shots.
- After recovering from their late-game setback in the first match, the Oilers have secured victories in the next two games. The series will resume with Game 4 in Edmonton on Tuesday, as the Stars aim to prevent a second back-to-back third-round exit at the hands of Edmonton.
