Kris speaks to the media ahead of Saturday's Battle of Alberta

THIRD PERIOD

0.0: A Battle of Alberta we won't soon remember. The Oilers drop this one 6-3 to their provincial rivals and will be back in action Monday when they continue their five-game homestand against the Los Angeles Kings.

3:15: Two 10-minute misconducts are dished out to Dylan Holloway and Chris Tanev.

3:44: JANMARK CLEANS ONE UP! A deserved goal for a forward who's had an impactful game tonight, but Edmonton is still behind by three with just under four minutes left to play. 6-3.

Janmark adds late consolation with his third goal in four games

7:09: Nothing to lose, but nothing gained. Blake Coleman scores on the empty net with over seven minutes left. 6-2 Flames.

14:37: Hyman's errant pass leads to a Blake Coleman breakaway, but Skinner bails his teammate out with the blocker save.

20:00: The third period is underway!

SECOND PERIOD

0.0: The Oilers trail 5-2 through 40 minutes in the Battle of Alberta. Under a minute of 4-on-4 to come on the other side of the intermission.

13.3: A holding penalty to Rasmus Andersson prevents Derek Ryan from taking off on a breakaway, but it leads to a penalty and 4-on-4 hockey to end this period.

1:01: Things are boiling over before the second intermission with a long brawl in the corner of Edmonton's zone. Corey Perry dropped the mitts with a Flames forward in the corner and the refs are going to have some penalties to dish out, but the Oilers are going to be short 5-on-4 to end the period.

3:49: Jonathan Huberdeau takes out the legs of Dylan Holloway to earn two minutes in the box.

5:51: Flames add another with the man advantage. Noah Hanifin gets his second of the game on a power-play one-timer from the left circle after Stuart Skinner couldn't slide across. 5-2 Flames.

7:46: Calgary is heading to the power play from Draisaitl's hooking penalty.

8:13: Flames restore the two-goal lead. Dryden Hunt steps up from the blueline and avoids the sliding Oilers forward with his shot from the top of the circles before beating Skinner blocker side. 4-2 Flames.

10:54: THE JANITOR THROWING HAYMAKERS! Mattias Janmark drops 'em with Blake Coleman and delivers a plethora of punches in a spirited scrap that's invigorated the Oilers bench. The Flames still lead 3-2.

12:58: Coincidental penalties to Mattias Janmark (cross-checking) and Nazem Kadri (embellishment).

13:53: A MIRACULOUS DIVING SAVE BY SKINNER! he keeps it a one-goal game after Edmonton lost the puck in their own zone, leading to a glorious rebound attempt for Oliver Kylington that's emphatically parried away by the netminder.

15:26: ZACH ATTACK! It's a one-goal game on Hyman's second of the game and 37th of the year that comes on a breakaway that he buried with the backhand beyond the flailing Dan Vladar. Leon Draisaitl made the terrific break-away pass to set up his teammate from his own end, and Connor McDavid has another assist and two already on the night for 17 assists in seven games. 3-2 Flames.

Hyman scores his second of the game (37th total) on a breakaway

20:00: GAME ON!

FIRST PERIOD

0.0: A fiery ending to this period sees the Flames & Oilers mix it up at the benches twice in the final minute, including minor roughing penalties to Connor McDavid and Rasmus Andersson. Calgary has a two-goal lead through 20 minutes.

1:31: HYMAN FINISHES IT OFF! The attention was on goalie Dan Vladar after Leon Draisaitl came in contact with him outside the crease, but after the referee said to play on and Vladar re-positions himself, the puck is put on goal by Connor McDavid and buried on the second rebound by Edmonton's leading scorer for his 36th of the season. 3-1 Calgary.

Hyman scores his 36th goal on a power-play second rebound

2:18: A power play late for the Oilers comes late in the period after Rasmus Andersson hooked Mattias Janmark coming through the slot.

4:07: A costly miss to go behind by three. After Draisaitl's open-net effort went wide at the other end, the Flames go down the ice and score their third on a snapshot from Noah Hanifin. 3-0 Calgary.

4:31: Somehow, the perfect pass from Connor McDavid to Leon Draisaitl is scraped off target and over the net.

7:14: Zach Hyman hooks Nazem Kadri in the neutral zone to send Calgary to the power play. The Flames are 1-for-15 with the man advantage in the last five games, while the Oilers penalty kill is operating at 60.7 percent since the All-Star Break.

10:49: Calgary doubles their lead. An easy saucer pass over the stick of an Edmonton defender at the blueline by Connor Zary unlocks Martin Pospisil, who snipes one over Skinner's left shoulder. 2-0 Calgary.

13:06: KULAK OFF THE POST! The defenceman rattles the crossbar and puts it out of play after it popped out in front after a ricochet off the back boards.

14:42: The Oilers call on Skinner to make a superb save on Noah Hanifin after they exited too fast on a breakout, giving up the puck and leading to a great one-on-one look for the defenceman against Edmonton's netminder.

17:58: Flames flare up early. Nazem Kadri gets the tip of his stick to the centring pass from Walker Duehr after Calgary flew up the ice in transition. Connor McDavid couldn't get there in time on the backcheck to prevent the Flames from taking a 1-0 lead.

20:00: LET THE BATTLE BEGIN!

20:00: The first period of the Battle of Alberta will begin at 8:07 p.m. at Rogers Place.
