Barons notebook: OKC gets three out of a possible six standings points
Barons have gone six games without a power-play goal. Penalty killing plays well.
Oklahoma City moved two standings points ahead of both Abbotsford and Houston with Sunday's win. Houston was idle Sunday.
The win kept the Barons from falling out of first place for the first time in almost a month. The Barons have held at least a share of first place in the American Hockey League Western Division since Dec. 17. Abbotsford can pull into a tie with Oklahoma City on Monday night by beating San Antonio.
