Command Analysis
Edmonton Oilers
CanadaCurrent form
Edmonton picked up a great pace in the first round of the playoffs and was able to score four consecutive victories over Los Angeles, thereby easily earning a ticket to the quarterfinals, where he continued to delight the fans. In the first match against Vegas, the team showed an excellent offensive game, which allowed it to make a comeback and eventually win a landslide victory (4:2). Once again, the pair of McDavid and Dreisaitl scored two goals apiece. Defender Bouchard also joined in, giving two assists.
In the return leg, the Oilers played even more actively, but the defense was not as reliable, which almost led to a defeat. It came to overtime, where they managed to snatch the hardest victory (5:4). It seemed that by returning to the home arena, the team would be able to succeed again and seize a critical advantage in the series. Indeed, the meeting started as well as possible, but even a two-goal advantage did not help achieve the desired result, and we had to concede with a score of 3:4.

Vegas Golden Knights
USACurrent form
Vegas' opening streak in the playoffs was not an easy ride for him. Although unstable Minnesota stood in the way, the Golden Knights experienced serious difficulties in almost every match, and it was only due to excellent play in overtime and two victories that they managed to avoid problems, gaining the upper hand with a final score of 4:2. Then a much more serious competitor, in the person of Edmonton, stood in the way. Despite the fact that the knights played in the home arena, they suffered two defeats with a score of 2:4 and 4:5, respectively. Goalkeeper Hill did not perform well twice.
After two failures, Cassidy's team went on the road, where they finally played reliably on the defensive, not allowing the Oilers to easily create dangerous moments. Even considering the strong defense, it almost went to overtime, but just a second before the final whistle, Smith made a shot from almost zero angle, and the puck from Dreisaitl's stick flew into the target, which allowed Vegas to win the first victory in the series with a score of 4:3.
Disqualifications and injuries
Lehner will definitely not be able to participate in the upcoming match. Saad and Stone are also questionable.
Interesting betting trends
- Vegas gets an average of 6.6 minutes of penalty time
- According to statistics, knights win 52.3% of face-offs.
