Miller's shot from the slot found its way past Oilers goaltender Mike Smith, sending the Rogers Arena crowd into a frenzy. The goal not only gave the Canucks a crucial victory but also shifted the momentum of the series in their favor.
The Canucks were the dominant team throughout the game, outshooting the Oilers 43-29 and controlling possession for much of the night. Vancouver's top line, led by Elias Pettersson and Quinn Hughes, created numerous scoring chances, but the Oilers' defense held strong until Miller's late heroics.
