Viktor Arvidsson scored a goal and an assist to lead the Edmonton Oilers to a 3-1 victory over the Ottawa Senators on Sunday.

Zach Hyman and Adam Henrique also found the back of the net for the Oilers, who won their third straight game. Connor McDavid and Leon Draisaitl were limited to one assist each.

Nick Cousins ​​was the only scorer for the Senators, who saw their six-game winning streak halted. It was their longest winning streak this season.

Stuart Skinner stopped 21 shots for Edmonton.

For the Senators, Linus Ullmark left the game after 20 minutes of play. He stopped six of the Oilers' seven shots in the first period, but did not return afterward due to an upper-body injury . Called in relief, Leevi Merilainen made 12 saves.

It could be a big loss for the Senators, who are already without the services of injured Anton Forsberg. Ullmark had won his last seven decisions and was 8-0-1 in his last nine meetings.
