Ducks hold off Connor McDavid and the Oilers 3-2
It was the fifth time in the Oilers' last six games that they allowed the opening goal. They are 9-22-2 when the opponent scores first.
Edmonton has trailed at least 2-0 in each of those five games after Perry scored his 11th goal at 15:50 of the second. Ryan Getzlaf caught Kris Russell's attempt to clear the puck with his left hand and fed Perry, who scored for the third time in four games.
Perry is on a four-game point streak, with three goals and four assists in that span. Getzlaf had an assist for the third consecutive game.
Slepyshev scored on a breakaway at 16:58 of the second, making it 2-1. It was his first goal in 13 games.
