Stuck in their first three-game losing streak of the season, the Edmonton Oilers have gone from atop the Pacific Division to just four points above the playoff line in the Western Conference. They'll aim to right the ship when they host the Toronto Maple Leafs on Saturday.

"First real bit of adversity that's hit us," Oilers coach Dave Tippett, whose team is 2-5-1 in its past eight games, told reporters earlier this week. "Talked to our leadership group in there to make sure we stay together. This is the first real test for them, so it'll be interesting to see them making sure we keep that room together in there, and we'll see how our leadership does."

The Oilers rallied from a two-goal deficit in the third period Thursday at Minnesota before suffering a 6-5 deficit.
