Ryan Nugent-Hopkins scores pair to send Oilers home to Edmonton with 3-2 series lead over Dallas Stars
Jamie Benn of the Dallas Stars plays the puck between Evander Kane and goaltender Stuart Skinner of the Edmonton Oilers during the first period in Game 5 of the Western Conference Final of the 2024 Stanley Cup Playoffs at American Airlines Center. The Oilers won 3-1 on May 31, 2024, in Dallas.
Wyatt Johnston replied for Dallas, which has lost two in a row and now faces elimination after leading the best-of-seven series 2-1. Jake Oettinger stopped 23 shots. The winner of Game 5 when a best-of-seven matchup is tied 2-2 has gone on to win 78.8 per cent of the time , including 50-15 when the matchup is immediately before the final.
Dallas got a chance on the man advantage when Edmonton was caught with too many men on the ice, but the visitors’ stout penalty kill doused a 24th straight infraction dating back to Game 4 of the second round against the Vancouver Canucks.
