<p>It was the Zach Hyman show Saturday night.</p>
<p></p>
<p>He got the Oilers first and third goals of the night and was a key part in Edmonton&#8217;s 3-2 victory. His first goal, a powerplay tally, came when he took a cross-ice feed from Connor McDavid firing a shot on net.</p>
<p>While it initially looked like it was Leon Draisaitl&#8217;s, the shot actually banked in off Jacob Markstrom and in.</p>
<p>Hyman&#8217;s game-winner came with over eight minutes left in the third and was nothing short of a beauty. He battled for a puck behind the Flames&#8217; net flipping a quick pass to McDavid. The give-and-go put Hyman right near the blue paint and was able to direct the pass in.</p>
<p>McDavid, meanwhile, scored one of his own four minutes prior. He carried the puck into the Flames&#8217; zone along the left side of the ice before firing a low-angle shot on net. Somehow, someway, it entered the back of the net.</p>
