The Oilers host the Blackhawks with some fresh forward lines

THIRD PERIOD

0.0: PLAY LA BAMBA x 15! THAT'S 15 STRAIGHT FOR THE BLUE & ORANGE! Calvin Pickard shuts the door on the record victory with 27 saves to claim the shutout, while Connor McDavid puts forward two goals and an assist in a 3-0 blanking of the Blackhawks. Leon Draisaitl records three assists and Zach Hyman gets his 29th goal of the season.

The Oilers will ride this incredible run into Saturday's matinée against the Nashville Predators with the chance to make it 16 heading into the All-Star break.

1:15: McDAVID EMPTY-NETTER! The captain makes it 2G, 1A on the night with his 19th of the year into the yawning cage. 3-0 Edmonton.

13:26: HYMAN A HURRY! Zach Hyman goes hard to the back post to accept Connor McDavid's exceptional pass and make it 2-0 with his 29th of the season. No. 29 also picks up his second helper of the game, along with McDavid getting his second point to grow his point streak total to 10 goals and 25 assists in 18 games.

SECOND PERIOD

0.0: The Oilers power play and Calvin Pickard come up clutch to bookend the second period with a goal and game-defining save. McDavid has his 18th of the year and Pickard has 20 stops, including one on the penalty shot, heading into the final frame.

1:36: Mackenzie Entwistle is awarded a penalty shot after Vincent Desharnais reached in on a breakaway. The winger for Chicago glides in on the left and tries to shoot across Calvin Pickard, but it's STOPPED by the netminder! A huge intervention from the 31-year-old backup who's been a steady contributor all night so far for Edmonton.

5:52: Shots are even at 16-16 as we continue this low-scoring game. Chances are few and far between.

18:23: CONNOR CLEANS IT UP! Leon Draisaitl's backhand to the middle of the ice finds the captain with an open net to look at and slide home his 18th of the season after Mrazek slid too far out of his crease and into Zach Hyman, leaving the net vacant. McDavid improves his home point streak to 17 games with 10 goals and 24 assists.

1-0 Edmonton.

FIRST PERIOD

0.4: McDavid airmails an open chance on the power play over the Chicago net and out of play in the final seconds! That'll do it for the period as we're scoreless at Rogers Place.

4:49: Calvin Pickard makes his first solid stop with a stand-up glove save on Zach Sanford, who cut into the slot on a two-on-two rush to create the opportunity.

9:45: The Oilers have mustered only two shots on goal in the opening 10 minutes.

10:29: Leon Draisaitl opens up in the offensive zone and gives it to Ryan McLeod for an open look, but it's gloved down by Petr Mrazek for a good save.

11:43: Connor McDavid and Jason Dickinson get into it along the half board in Chicago's zone, leading to matching holding penalties which you don't see often. We'll play four-on-four with the captain in the box for two minutes.

17:57: That was close. Mackenzie Entwistle hits the crossbar on an odd-man rush and the puck flies out of play. The game's best chance goes to the visitors, who are looking to break an 18-game road losing skid.

20:00: We are a GO for 15 in a row! GAME ON!

20:00: The first period will begin at 7:07 p.m. MT at Rogers Place.
