  "account": "Edmonton's Edmonton Oilers suffered a 5-4 defeat to the Anaheim Ducks on Thursday night, marking their second consecutive loss. Pavel Mintyukov and Beckett Sennecke each netted two goals and provided an assist for the Ducks, who have won three straight games. Laurent Brossoit was the standout goaltender for Anaheim, making 23 saves to secure the win. Evan Bouchard, Connor McDavid, Kasperi Kapanen and Leon Draisaitl scored for the Oilers, who have lost two in a row. Fourth-string goalie Matt Tomkins made 16 saves for Edmonton, who have a full-time emergency backup goalie in Brett Epp. The Ducks' offense was unstoppable, as Gauthier extended his goal-scoring streak to four games with nine goals, including seven on the power play. Oilers star McDavid, rattled early in the game by a hard hit from Ducks defender Drew Helleson, returned with a goal and three assists, extending his own impressive streak of 17 points and 44 points overall this season. Despite their strong play, the Ducks were held to just 2 of 7 power play opportunities against Edmonton. The Ducks will face the Calgary Flames in Calgary on Friday, while the Oilers continue their homestand against the Vancouver Canucks on Saturday.",
