Dallas Stars Rally Past Oilers in Game 1

The Dallas Stars rallied from a 3-1 third-period deficit to defeat the Edmonton Oilers 6-3 in Game 1 of the NHL Western Conference Final. Dallas scored three power-play goals in just over five minutes, a turnaround from last year's series when Edmonton's penalty kill had been dominant. Tyler Seguin led the Stars with two goals and an assist, while Miro Heiskanen, Mikael Granlund, and Matt Duchene contributed crucial power-play tallies. Edmonton's Leon Draisaitl had a goal and two assists but criticized his team for losing composure after surrendering the lead. Dallas's revitalized power play played a decisive role, and Jake Oettinger made 24 saves to secure the win. Game 2 is set for Friday in Dallas as the Oilers aim to recover and even the series.
