THIRD PERIOD
0.0: THE OILERS WIN IT! It was the kind of night where they just had to hold on, and that's exactly what the Blue & Orange did in the final 20 minutes to win their eighth straight game by a final score of 2-1 over the Blackhawks. Edmonton continues their road trip on Thursday against the Detroit Red Wings.
5:46: Skinner denies Donato again to end another good shift from the Blackhawks as they push for an equalizer.
10:44: Skinner flashes the right pad on Donato's quick shot from between the hashmarks. He's only been credited with 16 saves tonight, but he's been excellent for the Oilers.
12:52: Edmonton will be shorthanded for the third time tonight as Kane goes off for tripping on Dickinson.
16:52: NO GOAL! Hyman is unceremoniously ripped of his 26th goal of the season after a challenge from Chicago determined that Leon Draisaitl was offside on the zone entry for not maintaining possession. It was tough to determine if it was conclusive.
20:00: The third period is underway.
SECOND PERIOD
0.0: The Oilers fire just four shots on net, but they get the only goal of the second period to leas 2-1 heading into the final frame.
16:32: The puck is in the back of Chicago's net but the official wave it off for goaltender interference. No challenge from Edmonton.
18:28: McDAVID MAKS IT HAPPEN! Ekholm unlocks McDavid for a breakaway with an exceptional pass from inside the blueline before the captain dangles Mrazek and puts his shot over the netminder's right pad to make it 2-1 early in the second period.
