NASHVILLE, March 4 (UPI) -- Jason Arnott scored on the power play 2:31 into overtime Tuesday, handing Nashville its season-best fifth straight victory, a 6-5 win over Edmonton.

Arnott got the game-winner when he corralled the puck off the boards on the right side after a shot by Shea Weber and sent it through a crowd of players and past Oilers goalie Dwayne Roloson. Arnott also had two assists.

David Legwand and Steve Sullivan each had two goals for Nashville and Ryan Suter got the other one.

Pekka Rinne made 23 saves in the win, while Roloson had 37.

Sam Gagner, Erik Cole, Andrew Cogliano, Jean-Francois Jacques and Marc Pouliot had a goal apiece for the Oilers, who have lost two of their last three.
