A coaching change hasnt helped the Edmonton Oilers end their losing ways. Things likely wont get any easier Sunday when the Oilers look to avoid a seventh consecutive defeat and halt their home struggles against the Dallas Stars, who will try for a season-high fourth straight victory. Oilers centre Leon Draisaitl will be a healthy scratch. A pair of one-goal losses since Mondays firing of coach Dallas Eakins has shown Edmonton (7-20-6) remains competitive, but hasnt done much to lower the frustration level. Close isnt good enough, said forward Boyd Gordon, who scored the first goal of Thursdays 4-3 loss at San Jose. Were struggling to win games the whole season and (Thursdays) a prime example of that. Mired in a 1-12-5 stretch, the Oilers do have something positive to build on after scoring more than two goals for the first time in nine games and holding a 3-2 lead after two periods against the red-hot Sharks. I thought our guys went to the net hard, Gordon told the Oilers official website. Look at our goals, they were hard-working goals. If we continue to do that, itll continue to happen where the bounces go our way. Interim coach Todd Nelson likes the encouragement he hears amongst the players on the bench, and like Gordon, agrees the Oilers prolonged struggles arent due to a lack of effort. I thought we competed hard (Thursday), said Nelson, who was in his fifth season coaching Edmontons AHL affiliate in Oklahoma City before the promotion. I thought we scored goals the way we have to. It was a good effort by everybody. Its a start and a move in the right direction. Putting 60 minutes together, (though), there were a few lapses there - those things happen. The Oilers have suffered too many lapses at home, where it has lost 10 of 11 while averaging 1.63 goals. Dallas (13-13-5) has won five straight in Edmonton by a combined 16-5 score and enters this visit looking to complete a perfect three-game road trip. The Stars are also seeking a fourth win in a row overall, which would mark their longest winning streak since a five-game run in April 2013. Jamie Benn had a goal with an assist and Kari Lehtonen made 21 saves in Fridays 2-1 victory at Calgary. Its been nice to play a few good games in a row now, Lehtonen told the Stars official website after making his fifth straight start. That gives confidence to everybody. Lehtonen has stopped 48 of 49 shots on the trip following a 2-2-1 stretch during which he posted a 3.82 goals-against average. Hes been great, teammate Trevor Daley said. Hes challenging the shots a lot more, hes coming out to the top of his crease. Hes doing what he does. Lehtonen has an 0.99 GAA and one shutout during a five-game winning streak at Edmonton. He beat the Oilers for the 12th time in 15 overall starts after making 35 saves in a 3-2 home victory Nov. 25. Dallas Tyler Seguin scored two of his league-leading 23 goals in that contest.
