from Sam Carchidi of the Philadelphia Inquirer,

The Flyers haven't won on the road since a 5-3 victory in their unofficial second home, Pittsburgh, on Oct. 22.

Overall, they have lost 10 of their last 11, including six straight (0-4-2)....

I thought we lost the point tonight," coach Craig Berube said. "We’re up 3-1 and we have to shut the door. We’ve got to play smarter hockey in that situation. I thought we let them back in the game with defensive mistakes" that led to odd-man rushes.

from Derek Van Diest of the Edmonton Sun,

After taking a third-period lead with a strong individual effort from David Perron, the Oilers gave up a late goal, then fell 3-2 in overtime to the Winnipeg Jets, extending their losing skid to 11 games.

Mathieu Perreault scored 17 seconds into overtime to give the Jets the win on a deflection in front, keeping the Oilers winless (0-12-4) against Western Conference opponents.

“I thought we played a textbook road game,” said Oilers head coach Dallas Eakins. “We settled in, into a building that is extremely loud and volatile. We settled into the game and I thought we played a mature road game. I thought we showed some growth from how we’ve played as of late and I believe if we can play that game every night, we’re going to win a lot of hockey games.”
