The Edmonton Oilers dropped Game 1 of the Western Conference Final to the Dallas Stars in heartbreaking fashion. Edmonton collapsed in the game and allowed the Stars to grab a huge win to open the series.

It's really not as bad as it sounds for the Dallas Stars that Mikko Rantanen has gone four playoff games in a row without scoring a goal.

The Stars needed special teams to be an advantage. While it wasn’t through 40 minutes in Game 1, it was by the time the clock hit zero.

Dallas rode a red-hot power play in the final frame to kickstart a five-goal period and claim a 6-3 win and early lead in the series

The Dallas Stars reeled off a whopping five unanswered goals in the third period of Wednesday's Western Conference Finals matchup against the Edmonton Oilers, erasing a 3-1 deficit to pull off a wild 6-3 victory.

An empty net goal from Esa Lindell technically put this into the blowout category by the end, but who’s counting. It’s a 1-0 Stars lead on the road to the Stanley Cup Final, and the Oilers have 48 hours to figure out how they gave up five goals in one period of a game they thought they already had in hand.
