WATCH Oilers vs. Canadiens Live Stream Online: NHL Week 3 2015 Gameday Coverage

Hockey's back for the official 2015-2016 NHL season, so get ready, MstarsNews readers!

The Edmonton Oilers battle it out on the ice against the Montreal Canadiens in Week 3 of the regular season on Thursday, October 29 at 9:00 p.m. EST from Rexall Place in Alberta. Read on to see where fans can watch and listen to a live stream of the Thursday evening hockey game online and catch up-to-date feeds and coverage on highlight plays and scores.

While in the midst of Week 3, Montreal snags the highly-coveted top spot in Scott Burnside's official NHL power rankings for ESPN.com, while Edmonton still lags a bit behind (out of a total 30 teams):

Canadiens (1): "The Habs remain perfect at 9-0 with an NHL-record nine straight regulation victories. Carey Price was busy in Saturday's demolition of Toronto but didn't seem to mind. When will Michel Therrien get appropriate credit for his work behind the Montreal bench?"

Record: 9-1-0 (1st in Atlantic Division).

Oilers (22): "Watching the Oilers get schooled by Washington on Saturday was a reminder of the long road ahead for this team (they followed that up by a close loss Sunday against Los Angeles). Yes, Connor McDavid is a rare treasure. But this is still a team that is a long way away."

Record: 3-7-0 (5th in Pacific Division).

Tonight's game will be broadcasted live on local sports channels RSN and RDS.
