Vegas advances to face the Colorado Avalanche in the Western Conference Finals starting May 20.

McDavid Braved a Fracture as Oilers Fall to Ducks in Six

Edmonton captain Connor McDavid played through a fracture in his foot/ankle during the first-round series against Anaheim, finishing with one goal and six points and a minus-8 over six games as his speed was limited; he started the playoffs injured after a collision and missed practices, with teammates like Leon Draisaitl also operating at less than 100%. Edmonton was outscored 26-21 and eliminated in six games, heightening offseason urgency and questions about McDavid’s future beyond the two remaining years of his contract.

Ducks Ride Speed and Youth to Oust Oilers in Six

Anaheim used speed, size, and a rising crop of young players to derail Edmonton 5-2 in Game 6 and take the series, highlighting how opponents matter as Connor McDavid noted; the Ducks’ depth—Carlsson, LaCombe, Sennecke, Gauthier, Terry—carried the day while the Oilers, aging and top-heavy, were overwhelmed. It’s Anaheim’s first playoff-series win since 2017 and a reminder that sustained pace and physicality can dictate postseason outcomes.

Oilers ride strategic line shuffles to pressure Ducks toward Game 7

Edmonton used targeted line changes—pushing Podkolzin with Hyman and Nugent-Hopkins while keeping McDavid with Draisaitl—to spark offense in Game 5 and stay alive as they chase a Game 7. McDavid, though banged up, is expected to play, and the Oilers must sustain two strong scoring lines and solid five-on-five play. Anaheim, holding a 3-2 series lead, must score first, keep up their pace, and lean on Lukáš Dostál as they try to close out at home in Game 6, with goaltending and execution likely deciding the outcome.

Pacific Shuffle: Ducks, Kings Scramble for Seed in Final NHL Standings Push

NHL.com’s Stanley Cup Playoffs Buzz breaks down the final stretch of the 2026 regular season, where all playoff spots are set but seedings are still in flux.

The piece also outlines Eastern and Western scenarios for home-ice and first-round matchups, including the Bruins locking the East wild card and the Jets being eliminated, plus a recap of last night’s results that influenced openings in the playoffs.
