The Stars also showed dominance in faceoffs, winning 30 out of 53 attempts which translated into a faceoff win percentage of 57 percent.

The powerplay opportunities for Dallas were not capitalized upon as they had hoped; despite having three chances and taking five shots during these moments, no goals resulted from these efforts. Their powerplay execution reflected missed opportunities that could have altered the outcome of this tight contest.

Conversely, The Edmonton Oilers made significant use of their powerplay advantages by converting two out of their two opportunities into goals which ultimately decided the game's outcome. Their goaltender Stuart Skinner played an instrumental role in this victory by saving 34 out of 35 shots on goal from Dallas – showcasing why he was named one of the stars of this match alongside Connor McDavid whose contributions were pivotal for Edmonton.
