The second round of the NHL playoffs will feature an all-Canadian matchup between the Vancouver Canucks and Edmonton Oilers. 

Vancouver advanced with a late 1-0 win over the Nashville Predators in Game 6 Friday, winning the best-of-seven opening-round series 4-2.

Edmonton ousted the L.A. Kings from the first round for the third year in a row on Wednesday. 

The Canucks and Oilers have not met in the playoffs since 1992 when Edmonton won the second-round series in six games.
