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. ...

Seton Hall emerged on the scene after big wins over St. Johns (78-67) and Villanova (66-61 in OT). But the Pirates dropped a Wednesday night clash with Xavier, 69-58, that set the team back to 12-3 this season and 1-3 on the road. The Pirates are 2-1 in Big East play. Creighton, on the other hand, is suffering through a four-game losing streak that includes a 70-60 home defeat at the hands of DePaul Wednesday night. The Bluejays are 7-2 at home this season, but are 0-3 in Big East competition. Seton Hall owns a 6-3 all-time series advantage over Creighton, although the Bluejays took both games a year ago against the Pirates, with a 72-71 win at CenturyLink Center being the most recent. Seton Hall, fresh off of two huge wins, found itself down to Xavier by five points at halftime, 33-28. The Musketeers made it difficult for the Pirates to catch up in the second half thanks to a 52.2 shooting percentage from the floor for Xavier, which kept the lead at an arms length until the final buzzer. Angel Delgado led the way for Seton Hall with 12 points off the bench, while Haralds Karlis chipped in with 10 points. Sterling Gibbs dished out seven assists, and Desi Rodriguez grabbed seven boards to lead the team in the loss. Gibbs wasnt able to do much in the way of scoring Wednesday against Xavier, as the teams leading point getter notched just eight in the defeat. Still, Gibbbs leads the way heading into Saturday at 16.dddddddddddd0 ppg, adding in 59 assists to top the squad in the category. Isaiah Whitehead (11.9 ppg in 11 games played) and Brandon Mobley (10.1 ppg) round out a trio of double-digit scorers for the Pirates, who are netting 70.8 ppg as a unit this season. Whitehead, who has a stress fracture in his right foot, is listed as out for Saturdays game. Delgado leads Seton Hall in rebounding with a 8.7 boards per outing (third in the Big East), also adding in 21 blocked shots. It was a slow day offensively for Creighton against DePaul, although the Bluejays did outscore the Blue Demons in the second half - not enough to make a comeback, though. The Bluejays shot just 35.1 percent from the floor in the game, and didnt lead for a single second of the contest. Toby Hegner led all Creighton players in scoring with 15 points, while Avery Dingman came off the bench to add 10 points with five rebounds before fouling out. Austin Chatman chipped in with nine points in the teams fourth loss in a row. Hands may be reaching for the panic button in the Creighton program after the teams second home loss of the season Wednesday. The Bluejays are netting 69.5 ppg (just ahead of Marquette, which is last in the Big East in scoring), and are allowing opponents to score 65.6 ppg on 43.1 percent shooting. Chatman tops the squad in the scoring category with 13.1 ppg this season, adding in 71 assists to lead the team. Isaiah Zierden is the only other Creighton player to net a double-digit point total at 11.1 ppg. Devin Brookss 5.0 rpg mark is the best on the Bluejays roster.
