THIRD PERIOD

0.0: OILERS SURVIVE! WE WIN 5-4 AND ARE WINNERS OF THREE STRAIGHT!

13.9: WHAT A SAVE STUART SKINNER! COULD BE A GAME-SAVER!

1:19: Max Domi scores again. | EDM 5, CHI 4

4:35: Another Blackhawks – shiver – powerplay, and it’s Nuge getting four minutes for high-sticking.

4:39: ANOTHER PIZZA DELIVERED!!! This time it’s McDavid to Draisaitl on a 2-on-1! We got the two-goal lead back! | EDM 5, CHI 3

7:04: Entwhistle up top. Things get interesting as the Hawks pull within one. | EDM 4, CHI 3

7:23: Max Domi snaps one from the top of the circle on the powerplay to make it a two-goal game. | EDM 4, CHI 2

9:26: Evan Bouchard. Holding the stick.

10:00: SAUCE TO PIZZA!!! After Puljujarvi flattened a Hawk in the defensive zone, Nugent-Hopkins and Janmark were sent in on a 2-on-1 that was finished off by Janmark after Nugent-Hopkins put it on a plate for the Swedish forward. | EDM 4, CHI 1

16:30: Rough stuff from Connor Murphy on Draisaitl sends him to the box. Oilers to their fourth PP.

18:42: LET’S GOOOOOO! MCDAVID’S 18TH GOAL AND 40TH POINT! The captain rips it right side from the right circle, with Draisaitl and Kulak collecting the helpers. | EDM 3, CHI 1

20:00: HERE WE GO! Let’s close it out.

SECOND PERIOD

0.0: The Oilers lead by one after two periods thanks to Draisaitl and RNH! 25-13 are the shots in favour of Edmonton, who’ll have 21 seconds to kill on the other side of the intermission.

1:39: Everyone thought we were going to have a breakaway but it’s the back official who once again calls Nugent-Hopkins, who put a slash onto a Hawk.

3:59: Short-lived. Nugent-Hopkins trips a Hawk off the faceoff. 4-on-4 coming up.

4:02: Draisaitl is held along the halfboards, leading to Edmonton’s third powerplay. Let’s get it back right here.

5:27: A sloppy failed exit of the defensive zone from the Oilers leads to Chicago scoring on a wrist shot from the blueline. Who the heck is Boris Kachouk? | EDM 2, CHI 1

10:00: ANOTHER UNREAL FEED!!! This time it’s the Bison King sending a backhand pass from behind the net to Nugent-Hopkins, who nestles it into the net over the right shoulder of Soderblom. The passes are – chef’s kiss – this evening. | EDM 2, CHI 0

15:06: MCDAVID OFF THE POST FROM THE LEFT! The cage was yawning!

16:17: Entwhistle gets whistled for tripping Tyson Barrie. Like the sound of that on all fronts. PP to the Oilers!

19:06: WHAT A GOAL!!! Sick passing play from the Blue & Orange. Kulak gives way  to Nurse, who walks around the circle and throws a DART to Leon Draisaitl waiting wide open to the left of Soderblom. Darnell gets an assist in his 500th game. | EDM 1, CHI 0

20:00: Game is back on!

FIRST PERIOD

0.0: The Oilers have a goal disallowed in a first period that ends nothing-nothing.

5:11: Hyman has it in the back of the net but the challenge comes in from the Chicago bench and it’s overturned. Hyman is deemed guilty of pushing Seth Jones into Soderblom for goaltender interference, preventing him from having a chance to make the save. That’s two games in a row Hyman’s had a goal overturned.

5:57: POWERPLAY! The Oilers will get their first look at the man advantage with Jake McCabe in the box for slashing.

10:19: OFF THE POST BY HYMAN! HOW ARE WE NOT AHEAD?! His spin-around shot from the slot hits the post and looked certain to go into the net. Unlucky.

11:15: Heckuva rush by McDavid, who accelerates up the ice and cuts into the middle before having his shot stopped by Arvid Soderblom.

19:14: Quick penalty to the Oilers as Jesse Puljujarvi takes a hooking penalty. Let’s not turn this into the last game here where we took 10 penalties.

20:00: GAME ON!!!

20:00: Puck drop tonight at United Center will be at 8:52pm MT on Sportsnet One & West.
