The Edmonton Oilers followed up becoming the last team in the NHL to lose three in a row by extending their winless streak to a season-high four games (0-3-1). The skidding Oilers aim to reverse their fortunes on Monday when they open a two-game road trip against the Dallas Stars.
On the other hand, the Stars losing days seem to be a thing of the past. Dallas answered its own four-game skid (0-3-1) by increasing its current point streak to five contests (4-0-1) with a 4-1 victory over Nashville on Saturday.

Edmonton has not looked good lately and they are going to need their dynamic duo to carry them in this one.
Edmonton Oilers
The Oilers went from top of the Pacific and looking like a true contender to where they are now. Where the Oilers are at is now, is out of first place in the Pacific Division after surrendering 36 goals over their last nine contests (2-6-1).
One thing to know about this Oilers squad is you can’t give them powerplays. While Edmonton hasn’t found much success in the standings of late, its top-ranked power play is showing no signs of slowing down after converting in its seventh straight game.
McDavid set up Ethan Bear’s power-play goal late in the second period of the first encounter with Dallas, marking his third assist of the night to boost his career point total to 16 (eight goals, eight assists) versus the Stars.
Starting in goal for the Oilers should be Mikko Koskinen. His stats on the season are: 11-5-2 W-L | 2.74 GAA | 0.914 SV% | 1 SO

Dallas Stars
The Stars have been surging as of late and it’s due in part to their top players playing as they should be. Alexander Radulov notched a pair of assists against his former team to extend his point streak to four games (one goal, five assists) since being a healthy scratch against Winnipeg on Dec. 5.
Tyler Seguin, who is mired in an 11-game goal drought, recorded his 600th career point with a critical tally late in the third period in the first encounter with Edmonton before setting up captain Jamie Benn’s winner in overtime. He needs to score soon.
It will be a special teams battle to watch in this one. As previously mentioned, the Oilers have been great on the powerplay. However, they will have a stern test in this one. Dallas has killed off all 15 of its opponents’ power plays over the past six contests.
Dallas G Ben Bishop sports a 9-1-2 record in 13 starts in November and December, although he was chased in the first meeting with Edmonton after allowing three goals on 15 shots.
