After Wednesday’s end-of-game fireworks, the Stars look to keep the pressure up in Game 2 of the Western Conference finals.

For the second time in these playoffs, the Oilers followed up a crushing loss with a convincing win. The latest one was Game 2 on Friday, when they beat the Dallas Stars 3-0 to even the Western Conference final at 1-1, with Game 3 on Sunday in Edmonton.

The Edmonton Oilers have stolen home-ice advantage back from the Dallas Stars after a 3-0 victory in Game 2 of the Western Conference Final.

While the Stars’ side was peppered with postgame questions about the slash against Roope Hintz, the Oilers mostly took questions around the performance of goalie Stuart Skinner, who shut down 25 shots on goal from Dallas en route to his third shutout win in Edmonton’s last four games. See what the Oilers had to say after Game 2 below.

DALLAS – The Edmonton Oilers suffered a dispiriting loss in Game 1 of the Western Conference final on Wednesday, in which they fell apart in the third period, mostly because of their inability to kill penalties. As bad as that 6-3 defeat was to the Dallas Stars, how much does it really matter?

Edmonton Oilers goalie Stuart Skinner is remaining humble after posting a shutout for his club in Game 2 against Dallas.

Things are getting ugly in Game 2 between the Dallas Stars and the Edmonton Oilers, and not just on the scoreboard. With the Stars trailing the Oilers 3-0 in the third period on Friday, Oilers defenseman Darnell Nurse added both insult and injury with a fairly blatant slashing penalty against Stars’ forward Roope Hintz.
