The Dallas Stars came into Wednesday night's Game 4 with a 2-1 series lead in the Western Conference Finals. Less than six minutes into the game, they held a 2-0 lead. And then the Edmonton Oilers erupted.
The home team promptly rattled off five unanswered goals, winning the game 5-2 and evening the series at two games apiece. Ryan McLeod and Evan Bouchard struck back in the second period, while Mattias Janmark and Leon Draisaitl gave the Oilers the lead for good. OILERS (-135 ML) AIN'T HEAR NO BELL.
