After a win on Monday and an overtime point on Wednesday they were up to 7th place on the playoff yo-yo. Last night both St. Louis and Nashville won and the playoff yo-yo dropped them to 9th. A win against Los Angeles had the yo-yo rise to 7th again. Fernando Pisani, Ryan Smyth and Petr Nedved all scored for the Oilers as they beat the Kings by a score of 3-1. Ty Conklin made 18 saves in earning his 16th victory of the season. Petr Nedved's goal was the 300th of his NHL career. Fernando now has 5 goals in his last 5 games. Oates, Bergeron, Dvorak and Torres all had assists. Ian Laperriere had the lone goal for LA. The loss leaves LA 5 points out of a playoff spot with 5 games to go. Our friend the Sports Guru has the three stars tonight as:
