Heiskanen impacted the game each night after his Game 4 return against the Winnipeg Jets, both by his play on the ice and by how his limitations led the Stars to use 11 forwards and seven defensemen in the last three games of the series.

Forwards Jason Robertson (four goals, two assists) and Roope Hintz (one goal, five assists) led the Stars against the Oilers with six points each, including a hat trick by Robertson in a 4-3 win in Edmonton on March 26. Jake Oettinger was 2-1-0 with a 3.04 GAA and a .912 save percentage.
