Oilers advance to Western Conference final with intense 3-2 win over Canucks

VANCOUVER — Through to the 2024 Western Conference final after their 3-2 win over the Vancouver Canucks in Monday's Game 7, the Edmonton Oilers also occupy the top three spots in the Stanley Cup points race.

Leon Draisaitl sits first with 24 points in 12 games. Connor McDavid is right behind him at 21, and Evan Bouchard leads all defencemen with 20.

But the Oilers are shedding their reputation as a two-man team. On Monday, the Canucks held McDavid off the scoresheet for the third time in seven games, and limited Draisaitl to just one assist.
