Oilers aim for another win during six-game homestand

Feb 1, 2009 - 12:02 PM Nashville (21-24-3) at Edmonton (25-20-3), 2:00 p.m. EST

EDMONTON, Alberta (Ticker) -- The Edmonton Oilers seek their second straight win as they continue a six-game homestand against the struggling Nashville Predators on Sunday.

Edmonton eased the pain of a 10-2 loss to the Buffalo Sabres on Tuesday as defenseman Lubomir Visnovsky scored a power-play goal early in the second period en route to a 3-1 victory over the Minnesota Wild on Friday.

Dwayne Roloson made 28 saves and Andrew Cogliano collected two assists, while Ales Hemsky and captain Ethan Moreau also scored for the Oilers, who bounced back from their worst home loss in franchise history.

Edmonton concludes its stretch at home on Tuesday against the Chicago Blackhawks and then embarks on a three-game road trip.

The Predators, who are coming off a 3-1 loss to the Calgary Flames on Friday, are 2-8-1 on the road since a 6-3 setback against the St. Louis Blues on December 8.

Nashville has also dropped four of its last five.
