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.

20:00: The second period is underway.

FIRST PERIOD

47.1: McDavid creates an open opportunity for Bouchard with a steal from behind on a Chicago defender before Dickinson takes advantage of another turnover at the other end. Both chances came in the final minute of the opening period, but we're tied 1-1 through 20 minutes.

10:10: Skinner stops Taylor Raddysh on a great short-handed chance for Chicago before Boris Katchouk missed the follow-up at the right post.

11:55: LEON LEVELS! The German scoops his 19th of the year past Mrazek to make it eight straight games against Chicago with a goal and tie the game 1-1. Ryan McLeod threaded the pass through two Blackhawks on a partial off-man rush to put it on the tape of the German.

12:21: SKINNER LAYS OUT!!! The netminder keeps it a one-goal game with a terrific save on the wrap-around from Zach Sanford. Could've easily been looking at a 2-0 Blackhawks lead if it weren't for Edmonton's shot-stopper.

14:08: Jason Dickinson drags the puck and sends his shot on a 2-on-1 top shelf past Stuart Skinner to open the scoring for Chicago.

15:30: Ekholm unleashes a one-timer off the pass from below the goal line from Leon Draisaitl, but Mrazek makes another good save. He's made two important saves early for the home team.

18:09: Connor Brown puts a good tip on Brett Kulak's shot pass to force a tricky save out of Petr Mrazek. The winger moved up to the third line tonight with Evander Kane and Derek Ryan as the lone lineup change from the Oilers.

20:00: GAME ON!!!

20:00: The first period of tonight's game at United Center will begin at 6:37 p.m. MT.
