Kevin Erickson writes: "Edmonton carries the hopes of an entire nation on its shoulder, as Canada hasn’t had a Stanley Cup winner since 1993. It appears the Oilers are in good shape to play for Lord Stanley’s Cup as it has 2 chances to close out the Stars. The Oilers have won both closeout games so far in these playoffs, and they’re a good play in front of the home fans in Game 6."
