The upcoming NHL match features Dallas Stars against an Edmonton Oilers side struggling without their key players, Connor McDavid and Leon Draisaitl. Dallas, advancing towards the playoffs, boasts a strong offense, having scored four or more goals in recent games against Edmonton. Meanwhile, Edmonton aims to regain form after a slump, bolstered by recent performances from Zach Hyman and Ryan Nugent-Hopkins. However, the Oilers will need to make up for the absence of their top players in successive games. Dallas's formidable goalkeeping duo remains a significant challenge for the Oilers.

Edmonton have turned their season around after a long stretch of losses but will face a new bunch of challenges without McDavid and Draisaitl in the lineup all week, expected to miss the next three games. 

Dallas are firing and are building towards a long push in the playoffs so it is expected they will take no prisoners in this match. 

The Stars have had no problems this season finding the back of the net, especially against Edmonton, netting 4 times in both of their matches this season. Their will be another barrage of offence from Dallas while Edmonton will struggle to score against the third-ranked defence in the league. 

  • Dallas have won 3 of their last 4 matches. 
  • Dallas’ goaltenders have an average save percentage of .907
  • Dallas average 3.36 goals per game, 6th in the NHL.
  • Dallas have scored 4 goals or more in their last 2 matches against Edmonton.

Dallas Stars Form


Dallas are coming off a strong 3-0 win against the Wild two days ago, going 3-0-2 in their last five and taking points in 8 of their last 10 matches. 

The Stars do not have a better opportunity to push for a Stanley Cup than they do now, firming in as favourites along with the Florida Panthers.

The strength of their goaltending is tough to match in a pair of keepers that can both start and take wins. Jake Oettinger is 33-15-3 and has a save percentage of .907 while Casey deSmith is 12-6-1 and boast a .916 save percentage. With these two top-class goalies the Stars will be tough to beat long into the playoffs.

Dallas Stars Team News


No recent injury news for Dallas.

Edmonton Oilers Form


The goals have been pouring in for Edmonton as they fight their way back into form after a long and painful slump where they went 3-8-0, now flipping the tide and going 4-0-1 in their last 5 matches. 

Things have begun to open up for others besides Connor McDavid and Leon Draisaitl with Zach Hyman finding his goalscoring form along with Ryan Nugent-Hopkins, who is coming off a hattrick in the Oilers 5-4 victory over Seattle four nights ago. 

If the Oilers bottom three lines continue to fire, they will once again be right back in contention come playoff time. 

Edmonton Oilers Team News


Both Connor McDavid and Leon Draisaitl are expected to miss the next three matches for Edmonton.
