Oilers at Stars Game 5 Preview and Prediction May 29th, 8:10 PM EST

The Matchup: The Edmonton Oilers travel to Dallas to face the Stars in Game 5 with a chance to clinch a spot in the Stanley Cup Finals.

The Stakes: For the Stars, it’s elimination. For the Oilers, it’s a chance to end it all.

Moneyline Odds:

Oilers: +105
Stars: -130

Revised Analysis:

Home-ice advantage is a non-factor here, but they need to stay focused to hold in front of their fans while the Oilers are riding in with fire to take it all as their top priority. The question now is which team to go for all in?

Expectations for 5:

Which tender will prevail over the others? Is it worth it to rely on that at all?

Home ice has always been tough, so what can be done from the Stars or Oilers to tip it

Will Draisaitl and McDavid get to do a run that could bring it all to a victory, that has yet to be seen for all factors.

Revised Prediction:There is a lot that can go wrong. All the adjustments must be perfect.

So, take your winnings, and put it on what it may, what has already been on is a blessing for this game!

I am leaning towards OILER victory.

The power for a big win, what should be done with skill to make it that great? Will it be? Should it Be? You already know, now bet for yourself and not others!
