The Oilers begin a three-game road trip against the below-average Dallas Stars. The Oilers aren’t where they want to be defensively, sitting 16th in goals against/game, and they are still 26th in 5×5 goals/against per game. It was only the second game since 2009-10 the Oilers produced two shorties in the same game. It is the fourth time since 2009-10 the Stars scored two or more shorties in a game. The Oilers special teams is having an incredible start and they could set an NHL record this season.
