The fifth game in the NHL playoffs’ series between Vegas Golden Knights and Edmonton Oilers will take place next Wednesday night at 07:30 pm, and it’ll be the first chance for Edmonton to ensure their presence in the Western Conference championship series. However, it’s well-known that the Golden Knights will do their best to extend the series as much as possible, despite having such a terrible defensive performance so far.
When looking at Vegas Golden Knights’ performance, it must be noted that they were only able to win one out of their last four games in a row, a streak that is very concerning for a team that was expected to be a serious contender for the Western Conference championship. Nonetheless, it must be noted that Tomas Hertl, Ivan Barbashev and Victor Oloffson haven’t met any of the expectations that were put on them during the beginning of the series.
On Edmonton Oilers’ side, this team has showed a very consistent offensive performance throughout the series, scoring three or more goals per game. In this regard, the only variable stuff they’ve shown has been its defensive line, which is expected to have another great performance after the 3-0 victory during the fourth game of the series to ensure their qualification for the Western Conference final.
