EDMONTON, Alberta, Feb. 1 (UPI) -- Raffi Torres had two goals and Fernando Pisani had a goal and two assists Wednesday night, as the Edmonton Oilers beat Columbus, 5-2.
Ryan Smyth had a goal and an assist and Jussi Markkanen made 20 saves for the Oilers, who won for the fourth in their last six games.
David Vyborny and Fredrik Modin scored and Ty Conklin had 32 saves for the Blue Jackets, who had come into the game with a four-game winning streak.
The Oilers opened the scoring on the power-play at 3:31 of the first period, as Conklin deflected Marc-Andre Bergeron's shot from the right circle -- only to watch as Smyth hit the puck like a baseball into the net.
Edmonton scored again just 22 seconds into the second period when Torres picked up a rebound of Pisani's shot and put it past Conklin.
Columbus made it 2-1 when Vyborny scored on the power play at 6:03 of the second, but Edmonton scored what turned out to be the game winner when Conklin made a save on a shot by Smyth, but Petr Sykora picked up the rebound and fired it into the net.
