May 27, 2025; Edmonton, Alberta, CAN; Edmonton Oilers center Leon Draisaitl (29) skates with the puck past Dallas Stars defenseman Cody Ceci (44) during the first period in game four of the Western Conference Final of the 2025 Stanley Cup Playoffs at Rogers Place. Mandatory Credit: Perry Nelson-Imagn Images Corey Perry and Leon Draisaitl both collected one goal and one assist to lead the host Edmonton Oilers to a 4-1 victory over the Dallas Stars on Tuesday that has them one win away from the Stanley Cup Final for the second consecutive year.
Kasperi Kapanen and Adam Henrique also scored for the Oilers, who own a 3-1 lead in the best-of-seven Western Conference final.
The Oilers will try to close out the series when they meet for Game 5 in Dallas on Thursday.
Ryan Nugent-Hopkins collected a pair of assists in his fourth consecutive multi-point game for Edmonton, while goalie Stuart Skinner made 28 saves in yet another sparkling performance.
Jason Robertson replied for the Stars, and goalie Jake Oettinger stopped 30 shots.
With the score tied 1-1, Perry gave Edmonton the lead for good at 9:20 of the second frame with the game’s third power-play goal by redirecting the point shot for his sixth tally of the post-season.
Kapanen’s empty-net goal with 2:27 remaining in regulation time all but iced the clash. Henrique added another with 49.7 seconds on the clock to round of the scoring.
Dallas had a litany of chances in the first two periods, but failed to ever take a lead.
Draisaitl opened the scoring at 11:23 of the first period with the game’s first power-play goal, finishing a give-and-go with Nugent-Hopkins with a one-timer from the right face-off circle for his team-leading seventh goal of the playoffs.
It marks the seventh consecutive game the Oilers have opened the scoring.
Robertson’s man-advantage marker at 6:57 of the second period tied the clash. Robertson gained the puck in the high slot and ripped a top-shelf offering for his second tally in as many games.
Dallas forward forward Roope Hintz returned to the lineup after missing the previous game due to a foot injury.
Oilers forward Zach Hyman left the game in the second period after being on the receiving end of a hit from Stars forward Mason Marchment. Edmonton was also without forward Connor Brown.

It could be time for Taijuan Walker’s new role as Phillies search for bullpen answers
PHILADELPHIA — Last weekend, during his eight-day layover between starts, Taijuan Walker attempted to compensate with a 60-pitch bullpen session at Sutter Health Park in West Sacramento, Calif. This was the best he could do, because everyone involved knows this situation is less than ideal. The Phillies were forced to move Walker back into their rotation just as they discussed making him a late-inning reliever for the first time in his career.Advertisement“I mean, it’s kind of hard to get into a good routine, good rhythm,” Walker said after a 6-2 Phillies loss to the Milwaukee Brewers. “But I felt good, so…”They started him Friday night, knowing they needed length the day after a doubleheader, while also not wanting to push Walker beyond 90 to 100 pitches.
