The Dallas Stars will look to bounce back at home on Sunday, May 26th, as they host the Edmonton Oilers in Game 2 of the Western Conference Finals. The Oilers currently hold a 1-0 series lead after a thrilling 3-2 overtime victory in Edmonton.
Stars Aim to Even the Series
Despite being favorites to win Game 1, the Stars fell short in overtime. They'll be looking to capitalize on home-ice advantage and even the series.

- Defensive Struggles: However, the Stars' defense has been a bit leaky, allowing 2.2 goals per game in their last 10 contests. They'll need to tighten up defensively to contain the high-powered Oilers offense.
