Oilers eye fourth straight win

Jan 27, 2009 - 2:35 PM Buffalo (24-18-5) at Edmonton (24-19-3), 9:00 p.m. EST

EDMONTON, Alberta (Ticker) -- The Edmonton Oilers aim to match their season high with a fourth straight win when they host the Buffalo Sabres on Tuesday.

Edmonton posted a 3-2 victory at Colorado on January 16 and opened its six-game homestand with wins over Phoenix and Columbus heading into the All-Star break.

Ales Hemsky scored the game-winner with 35 seconds to play - his second of the game - as the Oilers recorded a 4-3 victory over the Blue Jackets last Tuesday. It was the second straight two-goal game for the left wing, who also had two assists in the win over Columbus.

The Sabres have split the first two games on their six-game road trip, which included a 5-3 loss at Tampa Bay last Wednesday.

Derek Roy had two goals and Jason Pominville dished out two assists in the loss for the Sabres, who like the Oilers, begin the second half of the season barely hanging on to playoff spots.

Edmonton opened the season with four straight wins for its longest winning streak this season.
