net. Dadonov trying to make himself available in front! Oh, skinner shrugged away a shot from lindell! And it's a two-on-one the other way. Here come the oilers, mcdavid across, zach hyman up with it, scores! Hyman outfights esa lindell! And the oilers have a 2-nothing lead! >> Craig: well what a sequence that was. It looked like this game could be died off of just a great read and a play up the gut as lindell walked in and got a beautiful chance against skinner. But this is the challenge that is the edmonton oilers. You miss your chance, and look at how quickly back on defence you have to get. Great job here of tanev to make the play but then he's not able to stop up, and then that battle with zach hyman. I think hyman was trying to put it somewhere else but watch the stick get in there right at the last second. So oettinger's going for the poke check, hyman able to battle through it, and finds a way to slide that one through oettinger's legs. >> Chris: so hyman has goals in three straight, he's also scored in three consecutive games won. He had three against l.a., two against vancouver, on the board here again against the stars in the western conference final. So two goals for edmonton in the opening four minutes and change here in the second period. >> Craig: no stick for carrick, he's going to bust the zone here and try to get it, unable to get draisaitl on in exchange. >> Chris: rounds past got past draisaitl and an icing call. Catch the spikes, dives, and blocks as team canada faces off against slovenia, the fiib volleyball league, saturday on cbc and cbc gem. >> Craig: saw zach hyman there, three in the last three after he hadn't scored for four games, and that was tieing his longest of his career year in year. Had 54 obviously in the regular season, the longest drought he had there was four games. He shook off a four-game goalless streak and now has goals in three straight. >> Chris: mcdavid does draw the assist so 20 helpers on the year for connor mcdavid, and hyman, a new playoff high with an even dozen. Here's stankoven back to the line. Lindell across, and tanev. Down in the corner, back it comes, a chance here! And skinner able to close that down on wyatt joh >> Craig: well here's an opportunity for that line of dallas to go up against the oilers fourth line. You think for johnston and his linemates, they have been having to play defence a lot against mcdavid. So now they get a better matchup and this is what happens. The puck control which they do so well, and a quick little turn around there by johnston, held on. Stankoven was on the doorstep but skinner didn't leave a rebound. That's a matchup for pete deboer if you're looking to get some offense going you might have to go and get your top offensive guys a bit of a rest defensively and try to get a favourable matchup. >> Chris: marchment's been a physical presence so far in this game. Another faceoff in the edmonton zone. Draisaitl digs in. And duchene on the draw but gonna wave draisaitl out, and this has happened with some frequency in the playoffs. >> Craig: that one I thought didn't even hit the ground. Usually you get a redo on that but I think they felt draisaitl encroached first, so holloway has to make sure he doesn't take a penalty. >> Chris: and from the draw, pavelski's down against draisaitl. Looked like he tried to sell a penalty, and draisaitl took exception to that and gave him an extra whack. No icing -- look out! Evander kane had his man lined up and harley thought a penalty might be forthcoming on that. >> Craig: draisaitl was mad that pavelski was holding his stick. He felt there wasn't going to be a penalty so I'm going to take a little liberty as well just challenging the official there a little. Got away with it. >> Chris: pass back to the line went all the way down into the edmonton zone. Kulak got back, gives it away! Jamie benn! In! It's in! Tyler seguin finishes it, dallas on the board! [ Cheering and Applause ] [ Horn Sounding ]

[ ] >> Craig: another good reminder that just crazy things can happen over the course of a shift. You look like you're out of trouble, you're going toking back the other -- to go back the other way and all of a sudden nice play by stuart skinner, and this is just a flub pass. And now skinner stretches out as far as he can, kulak almost able to stop that one at the other side. But credit seguin with stopping and staying with it, took one whack at it. Kulak couldn't get his stick tied up, and although benn wasn't able to put it, he makes the play. You think of game seven, and mcleod with the turnover that gave that building life. Here's kulak with one here that gives the dallas stars fans some energy and the stars themselves. >> Chris: tyler seguin has his fourth in the last six games. And it's a one-goal game. Benn the lone assist on the goal at 6:11. So after a decaffeinated first period, things are heating up in a hurry in the second. Haven't hit the 7 minute mark and three goals on the board, and here comes sam steel, a backhand that goes high. Around to the other side, and derek ryan, a slashing penalty. >> Craig: got an argument from ekholm but it's going to be bouchard who I think on the shot, the backhand by steel is going to get the slash. So there's three straight now that the dallas stars are going to get an opportunity. This crowd's going up. Here's the play coming, on the hand there by evan bouchard. [ ] Here's a fresh take.

I like your dinosaur shirt. ( ) That's Clutch. ( ) >> Chris: slash on the hands, usually an automatic penalty but did he get the hands? >> Craig: the problem is no, it doesn't look like he got the hands. Looks like he got the top of the knee but when you put yourself in that position, you know, ekholm's in great position there where he can accept steel and not allow anything. Of course knoblauch doesn't like it but when you get close to that area, you open the doorway for the trailing official. It wasn't the official watching him, it was the trailer who it looked like hit the hands and now the dallas stars get their third power play chance. >> Chris: benn got waved, pavelski in, and off the draw. Ryan nugent-hopkins gets another clear. So the third penalty kill for edmonton starts like the first two with an early clear. Here comes pavelski back in. That's knocked off the stick of robertson, and nugent-hopkins a second clear. >> Craig: not lost on that shorthanded faceoff is derek ryan, the right-hander in a penalty kill situation. He's 4-0 from that corner now on the penalty kill. >> Chris: foegele tried to clear, it was picked off by pavelski. Now they'll get set up, and jason robertson's got it on the near side. Robertson watched by foegele, back up top. Heiskanen gets it back. Robertson calls for it. Tried to give it back, and it was broken up by mcleod. And foegele able to hook it out and go to the attack here along with mcleod! Walking in! And oettinger will absorb that, and a faceoff in the dallas zone. >> Craig: boy, darnell nurse, you probably even hear it. He's tapping his stick here, a good read on this one. Gets forced with some pressure

from mcleod. Now mcleod's going to go because he's thinking okay, we've got an offensive opportunity, but so does darnell nurse. He was following that play but mcleod just abouted to make sure he didn't turn anything over back the other way. >> Chris: at the line, janmark unable to clear. It will be kept alive here as stankoven skipped in. Pass back to the line and now duchene off the boards, rink wide. Seguin tries to centre, that one broken up by ekholm, and outside the line it goes. Janmark unable to send it any deeper, and back in comes stankoven on the far side. Three goals in his last four. Here's duchene. Curling back, harley firing it. Stopped and the ricochet into the corner where duchene's got it. Gets it back from marchment. Thomas harley, matt duchene! Through a screen. Stankoven on the far side, final 10 seconds. Harley's gotta rerack at centre. >> Craig: twice this second unit had better chances and a better setup than the first one has to this point on the three power plays. >> Chris: so bouchard comes out of the box, takes a pass from ekholm. Got knocked off his stick, back in comes johnston. Wyatt johnston to the far side. In behind the net, craig smith tries to knock it down. Here's smith passing to dadonov. In behind the net, hooked it in front! That went off the skate of steel and the oilers clear to centre. That's 17 consecutive penalty kills for the oilers which is a new standard for edmonton in stanley cup postseason action. Just past nine and a half minutes into the second. Lindell ahead. Here's steel sending it deep. Around for bouchard, let it go, and dallas up with it. Here's stankoven spinning that in front, and quickly cleared. Draisaitl up ahead for hyman. Zach hyman tried to shift gears on heiskanen. And heiskanen will take over. Up ahead it goes, and here comes robertson, and back to make the defensive play is kulak. Skinner out to play that. Kulak works it to mcdavid. Watched there by johnston, big hit by hyman. Here comes mcdavid dropping it off, and robertson picked that off and back the other way. A potential two-on-one. Dadonov knocked down as he went after it in the corner. Got finished there too by draisaitl. Up ahead it goes, mcdavid and nurse trying to catch up to that, and harley almost intercepted. Benn stood up by hyman, and it's hooked in by mcdavid at the end of a shift. >> Craig: that's a tough read for harley isn't it, you have mcdavid waiting thinking hyman' going to carry it up and instead of backing off and giving him a free pass, an aggressive move paid off and didn't allow any play to happen. >> Chris: past the midway mark of this second period. Oilers have only four players with shots registered so far. Centering pass here comes across the other way, and evander kane starts back. He'll drop it in. Hyman, foegele, draisaitl, mcleod with shots so far. Here's cody ceci keeping it in, and that'll be covered by oettinger. So three goals so far. Draisaitl opened the scoring, hyman followed up, and tyler seguin's on the b Come tomorrow, I'll be missing you ( ) a Canadian team hasn't won in over 30 years.
