BREAKING News :Edmonton Oilers lean into age, experience in NHL playoffs
LAS VEGAS — The oldest team left in Stanley Cup contention leans into its experience to navigate tense moments, and there’s been plenty of them.
The Edmonton Oilers with an average age of 30.6 years, and in its seventh playoff series in the last two seasons, feel at home in the eye of the storm.
They’ve already been down two games to start a series, which was the case in the first round against the Los Angeles Kings.
The Oilers then became the first NHL team to win five straight playoff games coming from behind, including Game 1 in the second round against the Vegas Golden Knights.
