EDMONTON — The Edmonton Oilers proved they hadn’t given up on the season yet on Saturday night, and they did it without their top player. Sam Gagner scored the game winner as the Oilers held on for a 2-1 victory over the Anaheim Ducks on Saturday, despite having captain Connor McDavid on the shelf serving a suspension. I thought we kept a lot of their chances to the outside and made them earn a lot of what they got. That is a good sign for us and hopefully we can build off of it.”Josh Currie also scored for the Oilers (26-29-6), who won their second game in a row. “I thought it was a hard-fought game and we had some quality shifts,” said Ducks forward Corey Perry.
