Dallas Stars and Edmonton Oilers head-to-head record
The Dallas Stars are confident heading into Game 2 of the Western Conference Finals, having won three of their last five encounters against the Edmonton Oilers, with a dominating 6-3 victory in Game 1 on May 22, 2025. With Dallas outperforming Edmonton in these five meetings, their recent success points to a steady advantage. The Oilers have struggled offensively and in shorthanded situations, but the Stars have a big advantage thanks to their superb special teams play, especially their excellent power play and penalty kill. Edmonton has struggled to limit Dallas's scoring depth and goaltender steadiness, despite their narrow 5-4 victory in March. Unless the Oilers improve defensively and manage to throw off Dallas' flow, the Stars might take a decisive 2-0 series lead if the trend continues.
