John Tavares and Kailer Yamamoto provided their teams with series-winning heroics, while Chris Kreider had another great game to keep...
The stars came out to play in the second, with Mika Zibanejad and Vladimir Tarasenko both notching a goal to give the Rangers a 3-1 lead. Then it was some of their depth that finished the job, with Barclay Goodrow and Braden Schneider scoring their first goals of the series, and it was a 5-1 lead and the game was pretty much over.
It was always going to go the distance with this series, and it will certainly make for an entertaining finale. Kreider proved to be the winning factor for the Rangers in this series yet again with three points, while Igor Shesterkin was about as good as he needed to be to help out his team, stopping 34 of the 36 shots he faced in the win.Nothing sums up the way this series between the Edmonton Oilers and Los Angeles Kings went than Game 6.
To start, it seemed like the Oilers had this game in the bag, taking a 3-1 lead by the 4:06 mark of the second period thanks to goals from Connor McDavid, Klim Kostin, and Leon Draisaitl. However, no lead has been safe in this series, and the Kings managed to come back in the second thanks to goals from Adrian Kempe and Kevin Fiala to tie it, but Kostin’s second of the game would give the Oilers the lead again just a couple of minutes later.
