The Edmonton Oilers are on fire, crushing the Dallas Stars 6-1 in Game 3 of the Western Conference Finals. Connor McDavid and Zach Hyman each scored twice, putting on a show for the home crowd.
The Oilers now lead the series 2-1 and have a chance to take a commanding 3-1 lead on their home ice.
It’s been quite a turnaround since Game 1, when Dallas lit up Oilers goalie Stuart Skinner for six goals. Edmonton’s defense has completely shut down the Stars’ attack in the last two games.
The oddsmakers are loving Edmonton’s chances. They’re heavy favorites to win Game 4, with betting lines showing -169 odds for the Oilers compared to +141 for the Stars.
