A goal, two assists – still lost: The German ice hockey star Leon Draisaitl and his Edmonton Oilers put a false start into the conference finals of the NHL.
Despite the lavish yield of the Cologne, the Canadians lost 3: 6 after a break-in in the final third in the Dallas Stars and are back in the best-of-Seven series.
Play two of the Western Conference rises on Saturday night (May 24, 2025).
Burglary in the last third
The Oilers had the game under control for a long time, took the lead in the first third by Draisaitl and even put 3: 1 in the second section. But with a 0: 5 in the last third, Edmonton gave the game out of his hand – and is now fighting behind the Stanley Cup in the fight for the new move into the final.
Also in 2024, the Oilers played on the way to the final against the stars, but won the first game of the semi-final series at the time before the title dream burst in the final against the Florida Panthers.
