Los Angeles began the series as the underdog. In the first meeting, however, they won 4-3 in overtime. Then came a 2-4 loss, but the Kings won again in overtime (3-2). In the fourth game, regulation time ended in a tie (4-4), and the Kings were a step away from 3-1 in the series. But in overtime, as did the fifth goal (3-6), it turned out badly for them. Therefore, in a moment, the picture in the series changed - now Los Angeles has no right to make a mistake. They are on the step from the departure from the Stanley Cup.

Hardly anyone expected Edmonton to have no problems against Los Angeles. After all, this is a formidable opponent, and the Oilers' lack of confident defense still bothers them. The team of Connor McDavid made it 2-2 in the series and then played an excellent fifth game, making things much easier. At this point, the Oilers have the right for mistakes, and if they fail now, the decisive match will occur in their arena. Nevertheless, Edmonton will try not to let that happen.

It's not for nothing that analysts consider Edmonton the favorite in the upcoming battle. After all, the Oilers deserve to play in the next round. It's hard to imagine it without Connor McDavid and Leon Draisaitl, so they'll try their best to knock the Kings out. The Oilers know they shouldn't make it to Game 7. If they can perform as well as they did in Week 5, the visitors shouldn't have any trouble.
