The Oilers will catch the NHLs best team without one of their best players tonight when Edmonton opens a home-and-home set with the Anaheim Ducks. Jordan Whitehead Buccaneers Jersey . The Ducks announced on Tuesday that Corey Perry would miss 3-to-4 weeks with a knee injury that he suffered last week. The Oilers (7-16-5), tied with Carolina for the fewest points in the NHL at 19, slid back into the loss column after Tuesdays 5-2 loss at San Jose. Prior to that they beat the Sharks 2-1 to end their 11-game losing streak. Were getting enough chances to score three goals, coach Dallas Eakins said. If we continue with two, its not going to be a fun year. We have to put ourselves in a better spot. Jordan Eberle scored to give him a team-leading 18 points. However, hes had only two multi-point games this season, most recently in a win over the Hurricanes on Oct. 24. The right wing had two points against Anahaim on April 6, giving him nine in 10 meetings. David Perron has one point in each of the last five games after finding the net in the last two. The left wing also scored in the latest meeting with Anaheim after collecting five assists in the previous three. Anaheim (18-6-5) leads the league with 41 points after a four-game win streak in which each contest was decided by a goal. The margin for error may be even tighter after Perrys injury was announced. Perrys 14 goals lead the Ducks and he has 22 points in the last 23 games. Hes already missed six contests - including five last month due to the mumps - and Anaheim has gone 2-0-4 when he does not skate. The Ducks won their latest without him Sunday, getting a goal from Kyle Palmieri 53 seconds into overtime for a 4-3 victory at Winnipeg. Devante Smith-Pelly, who has 11 points, is expected to fill in for Perry at right wing on the top line. Corey isnt going to be replaced, but someone has to go in there and do his job, coach Bruce Boudreau told the teams official website. Smith-Pelly is a natural right winger even though he was doing well at center. He was the leading scorer in (AHL) Norfolk last year and he was a 50-goal scorer in junior. We know he has good hands. The same could be said of Ryan Getzlaf, who has 10 points in five games after collecting three assists against the Jets, including one on Palmieris winner. The center has 33 points in 30 career meetings with the Oilers. The Ducks are 17-3-1 in their last 21 against Edmonton and have won eight of 10 meetings at home after scoring three unanswered goals - two by Perry - in the third period of a 3-2 victory April 2. Anaheim, though, fell 4-2 at Edmonton four days later in a game that featured a combined 66 penalty minutes with six fighting majors and two game misconducts.

Hardy drove in a run for the Orioles, who bounced back from an 8-4 loss in the series opener on Friday. Fresh off the 15-day disabled list, Derrek Lee went 2-for-4 with two runs scored. Jake Arrieta (7-3) gave up three runs on five hits over six innings to pick up the win.A 12-game winning streak has landed the Boston Bruins on top of the TSN.ca NHL Power Rankings, overtaking the St. Louis Blues. The Bruins have been consistently among the top teams for the past few months, but their current run has taken them to the top, despite not having a strength of schedule deficit compared to the Western Conference powers. Moving up this week, the Pittsburgh Penguins go from nine to six. Even though they have just one regulation win in the past six games, the Penguins also got wingers Chris Kunitz and James Neal back from injuries and that provides a relative boost compared to last weeks ranking. The never-say-die Detroit Red Wings are still hanging around in the playoff race, thanks largely to Gustav Nyquist, who has seven goals in the past six games, to help Detroit go 4-1-1 and jump to seventh in the Eastern Conference. The Red Wings, still depleted by injuries, are up from 24 to 21. Heading the otther way, the Toronto Maple Leafs have dropped five straight as goaltender James Reimer has struggled to fill in for injured starter Jonathan Bernier and the Leafs dont play a structured enough game to get by without great goaltending.

Among other Canadian clubs, the Montreal Canadiens are up one spot, to 12, and the Winnipeg Jets are up two spots to 17.
