The Edmonton Oilers dropped a tough one last night, falling 5-4 to the Dallas Stars in a game full of injury scares. Zach Hyman left in the second period but managed to return, Evan Bouchard took a puck to the leg but also came back, and Stuart Skinner was forced to leave after a collision with Mikko Rantanen and did not return. Despite missing both Connor McDavid and Leon Draisaitl, the Oilers put up a strong fight, dominating the first period with a 14-5 shot advantage. However, things unraveled in the second, as Jason Robertson recorded a natural hat trick to put Dallas in control. Edmonton didn’t quit, though, mounting a furious third-period comeback with three unanswered goals but ultimately falling just short.

We’ll go through our scoring summary, one big take, and today’s Sherwood Ford Giant Question before shifting focus to tonight’s matchup against the Seattle Kraken. It’s a quick turnaround for the Oilers, and we’ll bring you the latest injury updates and lineup reports ahead of the second half of the back-to-back.

To cap it off, we’ll be joined in studio by DJ Bean and Pete Blackburn, who are in Edmonton for our watch party at Greta tonight! We’ll get their thoughts on the city, the unexpected snowfall, and the disappointment of not getting to see McDavid and Draisaitl in action. Don’t miss it!
