THIRD PERIOD

0.0: OIL COUNTRY!!! I HOPE YOU'RE NOT DONE BELIEVING!!! With a thrilling 5-1 victory at Rogers Place, the Oilers have EVENED the Stanley Cup Final (that is not a mistake) at three games apiece, setting us up a Game 7 on Monday in Sunrise to decide the Stanley Cup champions. Wow. This is not a dream. Foegele records a goal and assist as the First Star, but this team deserves all its plaudits together as the team that's come from 3-0 down to leave themselves one win away from the reverse sweep of the Panthers.

We will see you Monday, where the Blue & Orange look to make history and win their sixth Stanley Cup. As Stuart Skinner said: "You can never count the Oil out."

3:03: WHAT A SAVE BY SKINNER TO LEAVE IT FOR NURSE, WHO SENDS IT DOWN THE ICE INTO ANOTHER EMPTY NET!!! WHAT A SEQUENCE!!! WHAT A TEAM!!! THE OILERS MOB THEIR GOALTENDER FOR HIS SAVE AND ASSIST!!! 5-1 Oilers!

3:15: RYAN MCLEOD INTO AN EMPTY NET!!! WE'RE SENDING THE STANLEY CUP FINAL BACK TO SUNRISE!!! 4-1 Oilers!

4:12: Skinner makes a critical no-look right-pad stop on Reinhart in front!

8:30: Draisaitl is interfered with by Kevin Stenlund as the Panthers tried to rush up ice. Power play to the Oilers!

13:45: Derek Ryan makes a great takeaway, but he high-sticks a Panthers' skater right after for a penalty.

18:32: Panthers score. Barkov winds his way through and scores by sliding it around Skinner after beating Foegele in the right circle. 3-1 Oilers.

20:00: The third period has begun!

SECOND PERIOD

0.0: THREE-NOTHING OILERS HEADING INTO THE BREAK!

1:40: HYMAN BARRELS IN ON A BREAKAWAY!... HE SCOOOOOOORES!!! FLORIDA STUNNED!!! Nugent-Hopkins makes a block to punt the puck into the neutral zone, creating a foot race for Hyman against Forsling that he wins before sliding a backhander under the blocker of Bobrovsky. 3-0.

2:49: Adam Henrique just missed wide on the pass from behind the net by Ryan McLeod after the top corner was left vacant by Bobrovsky.

9:03: McDavid is forced into taking a professional hooking penalty to stop Barkov from finishing off a play in front after Philip Broberg committed the turnover near the blueline.

19:04: TAKE THAT GOAL BACK! The Panthers get on the board through Barkov just 10 seconds later, but the challenge for offside from the Oilers' bench overturns the call! A fantastic decision from Head Coach Kris Knoblauch and his video team to keep this a two-goal game!

19:14: IT'S THE THIRD LINE AGAIN! 46 SECONDS INTO THE PERIOD! The Panthers get caught on a change and leave Mattias Janmark alone near the Florida blueline, and the Swede sauces it over on a two-on-one to the oncoming Adam Henrique, who fires it off the far post and inside the other to make it 2-0 Oilers!

20:00: The second period is underway!

FIRST PERIOD

0.0: We're through 20 minutes in Game 6, and the Oilers are doing their part. Foegele's great goal set up by Draisaitl has Edmonton ahead 1-0 at the first intermission, with the shots being 11-2 for the Blue & Orange.

4:37: A slash into the hands of Dylan Holloway! The Oilers go to their first power play having already killed off the first penalty of the night.

9:43: A HEROIC KILL BY THE OILERS!

11:43: The Panthers are going to get a power play and the chance to tie this up with Mattias Janmark in the box for slashing.

12:33: YEEEEESSSSSSS OIL COUNTRY! THE OPENING GOAL IS OURS IN GAME 6! The Oilers break up on a quick rush created by Brett Kulak and Leon Draisaitl sauces it over to Warren Foegele, who'd fallen down before he got back up to fired it past Sergei Bobrovsky to extend his point streak to four games (2G, 2A). LIFTOFF IN ROGERS PLACE! Oilers 1, Panthers 0.

13:06: Edmonton with a great start to this game, outshooting Florida 4-1 after Evan Bouchard gets an open look before the seven-minute mark that's stopped up high by Bobrovsky. The "Serrrrrgeiiiii!" chants are flowing early from the crowd at Rogers Place.
