Next Thursday night is expected to be one of the most important dates for Dallas Stars and Edmonton Oilers in the current season, not only because both teams must look for a victory, but also because it could be the last game of the season for the Stars if they aren’t able to defeat the Oilers. In this regard, even though the pressure will be on Dallas’ side, they’re considered the big favorites to win this game according to the bookmakers’ odds.
Despite that favoritism, it cannot be ignored that Dallas Stars hold a streak of three losses in a row, in which they couldn’t score more than 1 goal per game. With those numbers in mind, the pressure will be completely on players like Mikko Rantanen, Jason Robertson and Mason Marchment, who were key with their offensive effectiveness during the previous playoffs’ rounds for the Stars.
Meanwhile, Edmonton Oilers must try to end the series as soon as possible to avoid additional exhaustion for a hypothetical back-to-back Stanley Cup final against Florida Panthers. In this matter, keeping the same offensive effectiveness would be such great news for them, as they’ve been able to score three or more goals on each of their games in the series against Dallas Stars.

Edmonton Oilers - Dallas Stars: Form Analysis
When looking deeper at both teams' performance, it can be seen that Dallas Stars have only lost two home games during the playoffs, a mark that shows how strong the Stars really are when playing at home. However, being on such a critical scenario that is pushing them to win three games in a row against Edmonton Oilers is the worst that they could imagine before the beginnning of the series against the Oilers.
On Edmonton Oilers' side, this team must try to take advantage on that situation to look for an immediate revenge over Florida Panthers, being worth noting that the Oilers were very close to come back from a very difficult scenario during the prior season in the Stanley Cup final. Additionally, when looking at their current performance it must be highlighted that the only team that has been able to defeat them twice on the road games was LA Kings.

Edmonton Oilers & Dallas Stars Squad Analysis
For this fifth game of the Western Conference Final series, Dallas Stars must have a huge priority on finding a very good offensive effectiveness, as it must be noted that players like Mason Marchment, Jason Robertson and Tyler Seguin were able to shoot four or more times on target during their most recent game, but only Robertson was able to score one goal. Taking that into consideration, the Stars must emulate the effectiveness level they showed during the first game of the series, in which they were able to comeback scoring many goals when they had some powerplay advantage.
The perfect example of offensive effectiveness was the performed game by Edmonton Oilers during their most recent confrontation, as no mattering that only two players were able to shoot four or more times on target, the team was able to score 4 goals. Despite that, Leon Draisaitl isn't as effective as he was during the prior season, so he must try to keep as one of the biggest protagonists if they want to get revenge from the silver medal they got in the last Stanley Cup final.
