EDMONTON, Alberta, Oct. 26 (UPI) -- Jordan Eberle and Taylor Hall both had a goal and an assist for Edmonton Tuesday in the Oilers' 3-2 win over Vancouver.

Shawn Horcoff scored and Nikolai Khabibulin stopped 35-of-37 shots in the Oilers' second consecutive victory.

Cory Hodgson and Alexandre Burrows scored for the Canucks, who saw their two-game winning streak come to an end. Roberto Luongo stopped 11-of-14 shots on goal before he was replaced by Cory Schneider.

Hodgson got Vancouver on the board at 11:29 and the Canucks cut the gap to one on Burrows' wrist shot at 7:43 of the third period.
