season in 69 games for Arizona, but just one of his six goals came at even-strength.

Benoit Pouliot tallied three points in the Oilers’ 6-5 overtime loss to the Canucks on Saturday night.

Pouliot, who got a goal and two helpers, has been a bright spot amid another disappointing season in Edmonton. He finishes up with 19 goals and 34 points in 58 games. Taylor Hall (goal, assist), Nail Yakupov, Jordan Eberle and Teddy Purcell netted the other goals.

Rob Klinkhammer picked up six more hits in Friday's 4-0 loss to Minnesota.

Through 18 games with the Oilers the young ruffian now has an astounding 83 hits, 13 more hits than he had in 29 combined games with the Penguins and Coyotes. On the season Klinkhammer has collected 163 hits, good for17th in the NHL, over 47 games with eight points and 17 PIMs.

Luke Gazdic has lost about eight pounds, bringing him down to roughly 230.

Gazdic plans to be down to about 225 pounds by the time training camp starts as he wants to be a bit more of a leaner, quicker player. "It's made a difference," he continued. "I really feel it on the ice. I won't lose any strength because I do want to be quicker and I want to be more agile but I still have to be able to take on the toughest guys in the league." He had three points and 43 penalty minutes in 40 games with Edmonton last season.
