4 nations messed up the schedule this year.

But NHLs goal should always be - Oct 1 to June 7 for the scheduling.

Starting the season Oct 9 is too late too.

Hoping that the depth of the stars shows up in this series. The kids Johnston, Harley, Heiskenen and, Bourque are all a year older. The biggest jump of the youngsters has of course been the growth in Harley’s game which has been evident especially in the 2nd half of the season and the playoffs and being the guy on defence in all situations especially with Miro out. The growth of the youth combined with the additions of Rantanen, Granlund and even Ceci/Steel should make the Stars a much tougher out. Come on Dallas, give us a big series win!

They are starting Oct 7 next season.

I can't see them making changes, you are more likely to see 2 more games added to lengthen the season. More money into the HRR pot.

If they can limit Rantanen, Oilers in 6.

Matt Duchene has 2 goals in 32 games the last 2 playoffs, 0 so far this year. That has to change. It really is the Finns carrying the Stars right now.
They just advanced to the West final with a 2-1 win
Steel and Harley with the goals...OT winner setup by Seguin

Dallas it's time . Take the training wheels off and win like big boys. If you wanna be superstar losers like Drai and McCry I don't know why.

Let's do the league some good Benn and Seguin
You looked horribad last year
Time for redemption.

The 2nd line has 2 goals. Their leading point producer has 2 goals in 32 playoff games.

The depth that keeps being talked about needs to start scoring. Not sure why they don't replace Duchene and put Johnston in his place.

No, time for some of you to put your childish bias away and vote Canadian.

You've said more nice things about the Oilers than the Flames so IDK. You may call yourself a Flames fan but in my books that title is earned. Cheering for the Oilers excludes you from the club.

Most of my predictions were wildly wrong so far, so I will loudly proclaim Oilers in 4!

Frank, is that you? Clearly you don't understand sports nor fandom.

The Oilers aren't competing for Canada, they're competing for the Oilers.
