Calvin Pickard helped Edmonton end its five-game losing streak Saturday by making a season-high 35 saves for a 2-1 Oilers victory over the Carolina Hurricanes in Raleigh, N.C.

Normally, the Edmonton Oilers wouldn’t bat an eye at beating a struggling Carolina Hurricanes team that lost six of its last eight games. But there has been nothing normal about the Oilers, so far, here in the final third of the regular season.
