Dallas was fortunate to escape with a win to even the series at 1-1 on Saturday night as Mason Marchment scored for the first time since the playoff opener on a deflected shot that got by Edmonton goalie Stuart Skinner. The Stars then scored an empty-netter to win 3-1, but now the teams head to Edmonton for Game 3. Despite the loss the Oilers have been getting good work in net from Skinner and backup Calvin Pickard as they have allowed only 2.78 goals against Vancouver and Dallas. The Stars played once in Edmonton in the regular season and won 4-3 on Nov. 2, but that was when the Oilers were in the middle of a 3-9-1 start to the season and eventually changed coaches. Edmonton has won three of its past four home games in the playoffs. Take the Oilers as a Max Play.
