Oilers keep Canucks winless in preseason

Five Edmonton Oilers scored, including Ryan Smyth, Nail Yakupov and Will Acton in the third period, in a 5-2 victory over the Vancouver Canucks at Rexall Place.

Those followed special-teams scores by Sam Gagner (power play) and David Perron (shorthanded) that gave Edmonton a 2-1 lead after two periods.

The Oilers went 1-for-8 on the power play and got 31 shots through against Canucks backup goalie Eddie Lack.

Mike Santorelli and Jannik Hansen scored for Vancouver, 0-3-0 under new coach John Tortorella. The Canucks lost to the Oilers 4-1 Wednesday.

Gagner and Vancouver forwards Jordan Schroeder and Nicklas Jensen each left the game with an injury.
