Expert recap and game analysis of the Edmonton Oilers vs. Anaheim Ducks NHL game from 29 April 2026 on ESPN (AU).
www.espn.com.auHere’s the latest notable information I can confirm about the 2017 Oilers vs. Ducks playoff series:
- The Oilers and Ducks met in the 2017 Western Conference semifinals. The series went to seven games, with the Ducks ultimately advancing to the Western Conference finals after a Game 7 victory. This sequence is most famously remembered for the dramatic back-and-forth and the Ducks’ win in the deciding game.[3][5][8]
- Game 7, played on May 10, 2017, ended Ducks 2, Oilers 1, with Rickard Rakell’s overtime-era heroics and John Gibson anchoring the win in goal for Anaheim. This clinching performance sent Anaheim deeper into the 2017 playoffs.[1][8][3]
- In the immediate prior game, Game 6, the Oilers forced a decisive seventh game with a late push, but the Ducks held on to send the series to a Game 7 as well. The back-and-forth included explosive Oilers offense in some games and Ducks game-winning moments in others.[8][1]
