Highlights from the Edmonton Oilers vs. Calgary Flames on Tuesday, October 26, 2010.
In the 3rd edition of the Battle of Alberta for the 2010-2011 season, the Flames jumped out to a 4-1 lead before backing off and letting the Oilers back into the game. It was an exciting game for fans, but it was definitely a little stressful for Flames fans who were surprised that the Oilers clawed their way back to tie the game in the 3rd period. The game went to a shootout and Alex Tanguay gave the Flames a 5-4 win after Miikka Kiprsuoff stopped all 3 Oilers shooters.
