The Oilers have found their groove once again to take control of this series against a stars team that on paper should be a lot closer in these games. This got me thinking… Which team needs to win this series more? Well today let’s breakdown everything that is happening in the WCF so far and who will be the better team to represent the West in this years finals.

Stupid skinner
OILERS IN 5
They don't call him "Shutout Stu" for nothing…
Ok nobody actually calls him that… but they should…
Living in Edmonton this guy is such a mixed bag of emotions. However one stat reins supreme, 4th game skinner is lights out. Bet the house
You should talk about the drastic change in playstyle stars had before and after rantenen. Going from offensive powerhouses to from behind winners
Love the content but man how do you do a series breakdown and never mention Nuge? He has been absolutely unreal this series
The Oilers are going to mop the floor with the Panthers man
1. how did knodblauch not call a timeout to settle his team when dallas tied it in game 1? weird / lack of experience maybe? 2. the nurse slash was typical of most slashes in that part of the ice… totally innocuous 99.999999% of time except on Roope who has foot-issue history. tough luck for Roope
3. why wasn't the hit on connor brown not called? he was 'checked' by a player who left his feet and led with his shoulder into the head area. As kids in minor hockey we ALL learn that you never leave your feet unless you have intent to injure…. Sheifele was victim of this earlier this playoffs vs the Blues, as was a Leaf vs the Sens, all 3 went uncalled. Can't be sure, but I am almost certain a Leaf got smoked like this against Florida too? So to Dallas fans, I say, please go play minor-league hockey and learn what an innocuous slash is vs leaving your feet with intent to injure. Roope was the former, Brown the latter. Period.
4. Skinner is the most bizzare netminder I have ever witnessed LOL
Stars are too slow. No effort
3-1 series what a close game til the last 2 empty net goals
officiating has been shaky but it doesn't matter
this team just isn't disciplined / physical enough. nurse injures hintz and no one does anything about it. and the sad part is they're probably gonna run it back with a few tweaks next year. we NEED a complete change. coaching and leadership (looking at YOU Jamie Benn).
after game 3, i lost all hope in the dallas stars, but after the fashion went out in tonight in game 4, I've lost all hope in them entirely. we will not win a cup with this core, we are no better than the 10s san jose sharks.
What’s your opinion now? I’m not sure you’re even watching the actual Edmonton games bro championship team
If the Oilers get Ekholm back…
Yeah Stars will be back. Robo, Miro, Wyatt, Otter, Harley, Bischel, and Borque all under 25. Roope and Mikko 28. Steel 27. Old guys gotta go. Defense needs to be rebuilt. And maybe PDB needs to go. Dude is allergic to the cup. Series isn’t over yet but I’m not holding my breath
It seems like the depth is paying off. Hyman gets hurt then put in Arvidsson.
I never see the great talent that everyone says about the Stars. Every year its tge same as to how deep they are and Cup favorites.
mikko rantanen -1 is genuinely insane. what a world.
good video
That's what makes Stu scary for some of the NHL best shooters, you don't figure him out. He figures you out.
Underrating oilers defence. Underrating oilers depth. And underrating oilers goaltending. The trifecta.
Edmonton needs to win more given how the last cup went for them.
Jimmy your opinion is garbage.
Dallas offense has been struggling, but we will see how good skinner really is when he plays Florida.
Terrible take on both teams. Oilers have proven over multiple serires including 2 against Dallas that they are deeper than any team in the west. People massively overrate players like Benn, Marchment etc and even Robertson. He only mentions 2 oiler forwards thrughout this vid. Its a typical tired uninformed take: oilers = mcdrai. That stopped being true about 18 months ago but lazy pundits dont bother to pay attention
Coaching is a problem. The man on man system they play has been repeatedly exposed. It wears out the d and leaves tons of open ice for a super fast transition game.
Remember way back when, like a week ago. When Rantanen was unstoppable. Whatever happened to that guy? Haven't seen much of him in this series.
The Stars are deeper than the Oilers?🙄
Not well informed about the Oilers.
Their last hope is that facing elimination will light a fire under their behinds, but watching Dallas out there they looked lethargic, few high danger shots.
Your commentary is drivel
Dallas has a brighter future then Edmonton ? Hmm, not sure what future your seeing, but the one I see has Edmonton playing in the Finals while Dallas players are all busy golfing. McDavid going to a team which has a better chance to win the Cup ? And exactly what team would that be? And after all you have seen, you say that Edmonton's defense and goaltending is shaky? and that McDavid doesn't have a good support group ? Pickard comes in as backup goalie and reeled off 6 straight wins until he gets injured. Then Skinner comes in and gets back to back shutouts.
You are putting down the team that is the WCF champs, lost the Cup by a goal last year, beat Dallas last year, and is about to beat them again this year. Take the blinders off and face the facts. Edmonton is simply a better team then Dallas. Nuff' said.😛
This is getting ridiculous, please move the oilers to Houston. I hope Canada folds. Move the maple leafs to Cleveland, Canadiens to Baltimore, senators to Oklahoma City, jets to Atlanta, flames to Arizona and Canucks to San Diego.
