EDMONTON -- Edmonton Oilers head coach Dallas Eakins wasnt concerned with how his team won on Tuesday, simply that they did. Jordan Eberle scored in overtime as the Oilers continued to try to drag themselves back from a tough start to the season with a 5-4 victory over the Carolina Hurricanes on Tuesday. The Oilers had led 4-1 at one point, but allowed the Hurricanes back into the game. Carolinas Justin Faulk took a penalty early in the overtime session for a hit from behind on Ryan Nugent-Hopkins. The Oilers forward was able to remain on the ice and set up the winner, sending a pass to Eberle at the side of the net to put the game away 1:48 into OT. "Id love to have a win every night. I dont care how we get them," Eakins said. "It was two points. Would we have like to have ended that game 4-1? Absolutely. But the important thing is there is two points in the bank." Eberle said it was a good feeling to come away with the victory, especially after almost letting it slip away. "It was a relief to get the win," he said. "We played extremely well in the first and for a little bit in the second and then completely took our foot off the gas. I dont know what it was, but we just started turning pucks over and losing battles and playing bad defensively. Its frustrating when that happens, but we found a way to win and thats the biggest thing." Taylor Hall, Nail Yakupov, Nugent-Hopkins and Jesse Joensuu also scored for the Oilers (11-18-3) who have gone 7-3-1 in their last 11 games. Edmonton also improved its troubling home record to 7-9-2 with a 2-1-1 record through the first four games of a five-game homestand. "We are working hard to get out of the hole we created for ourselves and it seems we are on a bit of a run now," Hall said. "Now it is time to get two in a row, something we havent been able to do for a while." Tuomo Ruutu, Jordan Staal, Eric Staal and Jeff Skinner replied for the Hurricanes (13-13-6), who have lost two in a row on the heels of a three-game winning streak. "Were a pretty resilient team," said Carolina head coach Kirk Muller. "We have to look at the positives, we got a point. We got out-played in the first, and came back in the second. We had a really good second and third. We got a really big point and possibly could have had two." The Oilers were buzzing to start the game and got on the board just 1:33 into the first period. Hall had a clear lane to the net and seemed to catch Carolina goalie Cam Ward napping with a quick shot that beat him glove-side. It was Halls 12th goal of the season and fifth in the last three games. The Hurricanes tied the game just over six minutes into the opening frame on a power-play goal. Ruutu was able to tip a Skinner shot on net and then get his own rebound after Edmonton defender Nick Schultz failed to clear the puck in front and put it past Oilers starter Devan Dubnyk. Edmonton vaulted back in front with nine minutes remaining in the first period as Yakupov took a pass from Hall and sent a blast from the slot that went through the legs of both defenceman Ron Hainsey and Ward. It was just the fourth goal of the season for the 2012 first-overall draft pick. Yakupov was looking for another with three minutes left with another bullet from in tight, but the puck went off the post. Edmonton kept coming and made it 3-1 with 1:46 remaining in the first period as Nugent-Hopkins was able to beat Ward with a shot up high while sliding in towards the net on his knees. Edmonton out-shot the Hurricanes 14-6 in the opening 20 minutes. The Oilers added to their lead less than two minutes into the second period as Mark Arcobello worked hard to get a backhand away off his knees from behind the net to set up Joensuu for a quick shot on the doorstep and a 4-1 Edmonton advantage. Carolina started to push its way back into the game and was finally rewarded for it midway through the second. After sustained pressure in the Edmonton zone, a puck came loose to Jordan Staal in front of the net and he buried his seventh of the season through Dubnyks legs. The Hurricanes made it a 4-3 game eight minutes into the third period, as Eric Staal was able to pick off a poor Eberle pass and streak down the ice on a short-handed breakaway. Staal faked a slapshot and got Dubnyk to commit and go down before calmly putting the puck into the empty net behind him. Shortly after, Carolinas Riley Nash was tossed from the game and given a major penalty for a hit from behind on Edmontons Corey Potter. But it was a wasted opportunity for the Oilers, who barely registered a shot. "We definitely lost some momentum there and they gained some," Nugent-Hopkins said. "We cant let that happen. When you get a five-minute power play, you have to get at least one goal. That wasnt our best job. But it is a big win for us and we have to build off this now." The lack of offence proved costly as the Hurricanes tied the game with just over five minutes remaining in the third after Edmonton failed to clear the zone in a sloppy sequence. Skinner was able to take a no-look turnaround shot from the point that somehow got past Dubnyk for his 10th goal of the year to make it 4-4 and eventually send the game to extra time. Both teams return to the ice on Thursday as the Hurricanes play the third game of a four-game trip in Calgary against the Flames, while the Oilers wrap up a five-game homestand against the Boston Bruins. Notes: It was the first of two meetings this season between the Oilers and Hurricanes, who havent played a game against each other since December, 2011. It was only the 19th regular season meeting ever between the two teams, who met in the 2006 Stanley Cup final. Their next game will be on March 16 in Carolina. ... The game featured the NHLs top two stars from the past week. Skinner was the leagues first star after scoring five goals and adding an assist. Hall was the second star with four goals and two assists. Custom Texas Rangers Jerseys .

Olympic champion Yuzuru Hanyu of Japan and Han Yan of China collided full speed at centre ice and both were left lying on the ice holding their heads while they tried to get up and the medics tried to reach them. Both were helped off the ice and attended to and the warmup was stopped to give shocked officials and the other competitors a chance to regroup before it was restarted. Hanyu and Yan were examined by doctors who found no concussion symptoms. Both elected to skate and, while they struggled valiantly, the toll of the crash was obvious in their performances. It looks unlikely that Hanyu and Yan will be ready for their next Grand Prix events as Yan is due up next week in France and Japanese officials have said that Hanyu, who is at home in Sendai recovering, will be off for 2-3 weeks which is when he is due to compete in Japan at the NHK Trophy. We saw the skaters resolve and determination in China so stay tuned. The unlikely may happen. With his second place finish, Hanyu is still in the running for the Grand Prix Final in December and his next competition is on home ice so his motivation to compete will be strong. The bright light for Team Canada in China was the performance of 16-year-old Nam Nguyen, who continued to show remarkable composure and consistency in his second outing on the Senior Circuit. He was the first competitor to take the ice after the unsettling warmup and once again stepped up big time, nailing another quadruple jump and delivering a virtually clean skate. His only error came when he singled a planned triple axel but, showing a focus and confidence beyond his years, he added it later in the program in combination with a triple toe loop. Not only was it a smart calculation by Nam, it was a risky move that only a handful of skaters in the world would be capable of. He finished fourth overall to add to his surprise bronze medal win at Skate America. Interesting to note that Nam just started trying and landing his quad this summer and is 3-for-3 in competition this season. Quite remarkable. He is young and still growing so lacks the power of some of the top guys but what he has shown us so far this season, his love of performing and ability to pull in top technical scores, is that he is heading down a path that is reminiscent of some of the Canadian legends in the sport. As expected, the Russian ladies continued to dominate in China but what was a surprise was that it was not Olympic team gold medalisst Julia Lipnitskaya who was the eventual winner, it was her teammate Elizaveta Tuktamysheva who stole the show.dddddddddddd Where Julia fell completely apart in the free skate, calling it my worst skate ever!, Elizaveta delivered an ambitious and engaging long program. She is, for many, the sentimental favourite when it comes to picking among the deep pool of young Russian talent. We watched her rise to prominence as a 14-year-old, only to have it slip away as the Olympics approached due to a maturing body which resulted in inconsistent jumps. In 2011-2012, the Russian golden girl became a Sochi spectator and this summer, her quest became a personal one about getting back to where she once was. Well, she has done that, and then some. Her triples are technically as good as they come. They are light and springy, and clean and controlled. Her performances now have soul. There is a heartfelt emotion that was not there previously. As the saying goes, you dont know what youve got till its gone, and Elizaveta knows what she lost and one can see the triumph of having it back written all over her face. With the win in China and a silver at Skate America, she has earned a spot at the Grand Prix final where, at only 17, she will likely be the elder statesmen in what is shaping up to be a very young field. Also in the ladies event in China, we got our first look at the 16-year-old Canadian silver medalist Gabrielle Daleman on the senior circuit. She finished in a respectable fifth place but was in a virtual tie for fourth (.01 back) in a tough field. Gabby has both the jumping arsenal to contend and the determined focus to attack and deliver. I like what I saw from her in China on her first time out at this level this season and while her face in the kiss and cry said that she did not like the results, she is in the game and, with a little fine tuning, can get the scores shes hoping for. We are now at the halfway point of the Grand Prix season and this is where the spots for the final (six in each discipline) will begin to be locked up. Canadians are strongest in the pairs and dance this season and are on target to qualify two teams in the dance and one in the pairs. Our attention turns to Russia this weekend and the Rostelecom Cup. Canada has only a couple of entries but the Russians of course will be out in full force, except for Olympic champion Adelina Sotnikova who is now out due to injury. In the renaissance that is Russian skating, it will be fun to watch some of their new teams in both the pairs and dance as they jostle for prominence in the early stages of this Olympic quadrennial.
