Edmonton Oilers scramble to fix their perennial goaltending crisis as Tristan Jarry’s injury throws the net into chaos. Can Connor McDavid’s red-hot play and the Oilers’ offensive firepower compensate for subpar save percentages and keep playoff dreams alive? Nick Zararis examines Edmonton’s risky piecemeal approach to goaltending, with Stuart Skinner, Calvin Pickard, Connor Ingram, and Jarry all under the microscope. The episode explores team save percentage woes, historical context around what kind of net minding wins Stanley Cups, and whether slightly above-average goaltending might be enough for Oil Country.
