The Edmonton Oilers have been here before, heading back home with their season on the line. They’re hoping for a different result this time around. Last year, the Oilers fell behind Vegas 3-2 before returning to Edmonton for Game 6. The Golden Knights wrapped up the series with a 5-2 victory in that game and went on to win the Stanley Cup.
Edmonton Oilers ’ Cody Ceci, Corey Perry, Brett Kulak and Connor Brown, from left, stand on the bench during the final seconds in Game 5 of the team’s NHL hockey Stanley Cup second-round playoff series against the Vancouver Canucks , Thursday, May 16, 2024, in Vancouver, British Columbia.
Limiting Edmonton captain Connor McDavid’s production has been key to Vancouver’s success throughout the series. “Without being disrespectful, I thought the last couple games we were kind of giving Connor a little too much respect, playing not to get scored on a little bit and when you do that, he just gets more time with the puck,” said Miller, who scoredf the winning goal in the final minute of Game 5.
“I think there’s adjustments, whether those are the lines, fresh body or two coming in,” Knoblauch said. “Again, those are things we’ll assess and make that decision .”Stuart Skinner was in goal for the first two games of the series, but was replaced for the third period of Game 3 after allowing four goals on 15 shots.
