On April 30th, the Edmonton Oilers are staring down elimination again tonight in game 6 against the Anaheim Ducks at the Honda Center. A win forces a decisive game 7 back home at Rogers Place on Saturday. Its do-or-die at 8 p.m. mountain time on SportsNet or the Oilers Radio Network. They kept their season alive with a solid 4-to-1 victory in game 5 on Tuesday. The Edmonton jumped out to a 3-nothing lead in the first 10 minutes, scoring 3 quick goals to chase the Ducks goalie. They held firm after that, matching Anaheim's power play output. Players like Conor McDavid are keeping it real, saying they've just survived one more day, and now the pressure flips to the Ducks who don't want to. Return to Edmonton. Coach Chris Nobelouch noted how good it feels after a win like that, especially coming off an overtime loss before. Vasili Paak-Kolzen has been a standout, netting the opener with a sharp snipe and shining with two goals in 3 assists in the playoff so far.

His extra practice paid off, and line-tweets putting McDavid with Leon Drizidal ease the load. Drizidal added a power play tally too. McDavid played through any bumps as a game time call, and expect him ready tonight. The Oilers carry that rhythm into this row test, aiming to stay alive one more time.
