Stars score 5 goals in the third period to gather Oilers in game 1 of the Western Finale

Leon Draisaitl had a goal and two templates, Ryan Nugent-Hopkins had a goal and an assistant and Connor McDavid had two templates for Edmonton, the number 3 of the Pacific Division. Stuart Skinner made 22 parades.

“Obviously we let our guard get into the guard for five or six minutes, they got some difficulties with penalties. They came out hot, at that moment the dynamics for them shifted and obviously bitten us. We let it slide a bit,” said Skinner. “It is a difficult pill to swallow. You just can't do that, especially in the playoff time, especially against such a team, you know how to score goals.”

The Oilers brought a 3-1 lead into the third period before Heikanen took the lead to the power play to 3: 2 when his shot came past a shielded ski from the point 32 seconds after the start of the comeback.

“To go into the series and knew that special teams would be a large part of them. Tonight with three received three [power-play goals] In the third period, this obviously changes some things. Even after getting the first, you could only see that our boys had just stepped back and after we had just stepped back, ”said Edmonton trainer Kris Knoblauch. They feel better in their game, they only pursue one and then another punishment that we cannot kill.”

Granlund achieved the second power play goal of this time to bind it 3: 3 at 3:49 a.m. with a shot from the top of the right allocation circle.

“We have to kill better. It's just so easy. You have a good power game, but if we play as we can and we showed it in the playoffs, our penalty killing can also be very good,” said Edmonton's defender, Darnell Nurse. “In this department we have to be better with a man. Whether it is a struggle won, a clear, a block, a piece that always has to be made on what [penalty kill]We have to do it and we didn't do enough this evening. “

Draisaitl scored in the first period at 10:19 a.m. to create a 1-0 lead on a shot from the bottom of the right allocation circle, which defeated the long-range corner of Oettinger.
