Viktor Arvidsson, Corey Perry and Zach Hyman also scored, and Calvin Pickard made 26 saves for the Oilers, who have won three of their last four.

Predators: Nashville was 3-0-1 in its last four games prior to Thursday night’s dreadful performance. If the Predators hope to climb out of their early-season hole, they need to find consistent scoring aside from Forsberg, who leads the team with five goals.The Oilers dominated the game’s first shift, picking up three shots on goal and two other shot attempts before Arvidsson beat Saros for his first goal as an Oiler just 37 seconds into the game.
