Why you should back the Stars
Jake Oettinger’s recovery after giving up two early goals in Game 3 is just one example of what has made Dallas successful in these playoffs. He enters Game 4 with a 2.09 goals-against average and .923 save percentage, and he will stand on his head yet again as Edmonton’s top line tries to outscore Dallas’ depth on Wednesday.
Getting Roope Hintz back in the lineup has added to the Stars’ already-impressive depth, and they are even more dangerous now that Robertson and Wyatt Johnston have broken their scoring slumps. Dallas’ defense has also held up their end of the bargain as Miro Heiskanen and Esa Lindell pitch in as helpers in addition to backing up Oettinger. See who to back at SportsLine.
Why you should back the Oilers
Bench boss Kris Knoblauch is expected to make some lineup changes for Game 4, but the loss in Game 3 should also light a fire under the Oilers’ big guns. McDavid has had an impact on the series, but Edmonton is going to need Zach Hyman and Leon Draisaitl to step up at home in Game 4. One plus is that getting Adam Henrique back at third-line center has added some depth scoring.
The model appears confident that Stuart Skinner will lock down in net in Game 4 as well. He had held the opposition to two or fewer goals since returning to the starting role in Round 2, but has since given up seven over the last two games. He enters Game 4 with a 2.76 goals-against average and .885 save percentage. See who to back at SportsLine.
