5:11: Matt Duchene got called for tripping to give the Oilers the game’s first power play (with 5:11 to go in the game!).

12:29: Shots on goal are even at 16-16 with 12-and-a-half minutes to go.
15:52: Josh Anderson used his speed to get in behind the Oilers defence and drive to the net. He cut in front and put a backhand on goal. Koskinen made an excellent pad save to keep the Oilers in the lead.
19:15: CONNOR TO KASS! Only 45 seconds into the third period, McDavid threaded the puck over to Zack Kassian on a two-on-one and Kassian made no mistake, one-timing it past Korpisalo to put the Oilers in the lead. | EDM 2, CBJ 1
