Recap: Oilers shutout Stars 3-0 to even series

Tonight, the comeback kids took a nap.

The Edmonton Oilers tied their best-of-seven Western Conference Final series at one game apiece against the Dallas Stars Friday night, shutting out the home team 3-0 at American Airlines Center.

The game played out very similar to Game 1. The only thing that was missing was Dallas catching lightning a bottle and three power play goals in six minutes to snatch the victory despite getting outplayed for a majority of the game. However, it was all Oilers in Game 2.

Ryan Nugent-Hopkins put Edmonton on the board in the first period, before Brett Kulak and Connor Brown provided insurance markers in the second period.
