Oilers looking for consistency heading into game at struggling Sharks

The Edmonton Oilers will try to win back-to-back games for just the third time in in 21 games on Friday night when they visit the San Jose Sharks.

Edmonton snapped a two-game losing streak with a 6-2 victory at Anaheim on Wednesday, jumping out to a 4-1 first-period lead and extending the advantage to 6-1 after two periods. The Oilers tied a team road record with 53 shots on goal that had been last accomplished in 1981.
