Oilers 4, Panthers 1: Jordan Eberle scored twice as host Edmonton set a season high with its third consecutive victory.

Sam Gagner and David Perron added goals for the Oilers, who have outscored the opposition 15-3 during the winning streak. Devan Dubnyk made 24 saves to preserve the victory while Ryan Nugent-Hopkins added three assists.

Scottie Upshall's second-period goal paced the Panthers, who fell to 2-2-0 on their five-game Western Conference road swing. Tim Thomas stopped 31 shots in defeat.

Edmonton needed less than a minute to carry over its momentum from a 7-0 win over Columbus earlier in the week, as Eberle batted a mid-air rebound of Nugent-Hopkins' shot past Thomas with defenseman Tom Gilbert serving a holding penalty. Gagner extended the lead 6:10 into the second, converting a slick pass from Nail Yakupov for his first goal of the season.

Perron made it a 3-0 game on the man advantage at 10:54, tipping home defenseman Justin Schultz's shot for his fourth goal in three games. Upshall put the Panthers on the board at 16:34 of the period - ending a run of 14 straight Edmonton goals - but Dubnyk kept Florida off the ledger the rest of the way, helping kill off back-to-back Panthers power plays early in the period while Eberle put the game away with an empty netter.
