The Edmonton Oilers are now Canada’s lone team in the Stanley Cup playoffs.

With both the Toronto Maple Leafs and Winnipeg Jets having been eliminated, the Oilers are the only Canadian-based team still alive. Edmonton is slated to open its best-of-seven Western Conference final versus the Dallas Stars in Texas on Wednesday night.

It’s a rematch of last year’s conference final, which Edmonton won to advance to the Stanley Cup.
