- Corey Perry opened the scoring on the power play before Mattias Janmark and Jeff Skinner—who notched his first career playoff goal—completed the three-goal first period.
- Connor McDavid’s solo effort in the second restored the Oilers’ two-goal cushion after Roope Hintz had cut the deficit for Dallas.
