Wayne Gretzky didn't hold back when he talked about the Edmonton Oilers' tough 5-3 loss to the Dallas Stars in Game 3 of the Western Conference finals.

They went from riding high with a 2-0 lead after the first period to suddenly finding themselves trailing 3-2 just over 3:13 into the second period.

"Edmonton played like Bob Hope in the first period and no hope in the second period" 😅

A third period goal by Jason Robertson to complete his hat trick was the dagger. It was the final nail in the coffin for the Oilers' hopes of retaking the series lead.

Statistically speaking, when a best-of-seven series is tied 1-1, the team that comes out on top in Game 3 ends up winning the series 66% of the time. And in conference final series like this one, that number is 76%.

That said, it's only 2-1 and Edmonton needs just one win to even the series. It's onto Wednesday's Game 4.
