This matchup was all about the Kings' depth versus the Oilers' firepower. That depth looked like the safe bet through two games, but then that firepower in Edmonton really ignited. McDavid, Draisaitl and Evan Bouchard took over the series late in Game 3, and they didn't look back.

Three of the six games in the series went into overtime, with Los Angeles winning two of those three contests. The series became tied at two games apiece, before Edmonton outscored Los Angeles 11-7 in the final two games. Stuart Skinner shined in net, saving 65 shots across Games 5 and 6.
