PHOENIX (AP) — Dustin Penner scored with 21 seconds left in regulation and the Edmonton Oilers got a rare power-play goal to beat the Phoenix Coyotes 4-3 on Tuesday night and end a five-game losing streak.
Taylor Hall scored early in the third period, Edmonton’s second goal in 54 power-play chances, and Linus Omark scored 72 seconds later to put the Oilers up 3-2.
Phoenix tied it on Scottie Upshall’s second goal, but Edmonton turned up the offensive pressure, setting up Penner’s winner on a cross from Hall.
Jean-Francois Jacques also scored for the Oilers, who won for the third time in 17 games.
Kyle Turris had a goal and newly selected All-Star Keith Yandle two assists for Phoenix in one of its most disappointing losses of the season.
