Tristan Jarry and Spencer Stastney will make their Edmonton Oilers debut tonight in Toronto and there’s a small belief that sometimes all it takes is a fresh start. Whether that belief is justified remains to be seen. Jarry is 9-3-1 in 14 games this season with a 2.66 GAA and .909 save percentage. Those are…

I found this Stuart Skinner facial expression funny and appropriate today for a number of reasons. I'll get to the reason for the title in a second, but the biggest reason was because the man making the facial expression was traded in what was being described as a "blockbuster" trade by pundits hours before an actual blockbuster trade happened. Perhaps we should stop throwing around hyperbole? At this point, everyone is asking why this trade was made, but I think we need to look deeper than th...

On Friday morning, the Edmonton Oilers traded Brett Kulak in a package to land Tristan Jarry. It’s certainly a bittersweet trade. As frustrating as Stuart Skinner was at times, he was still an incredibly likable player who was great at his best, as well as durable. Kulak was a cap casualty and replaced by a…

The Edmonton Oilers finally made a goalie change by bringing in Tristan Jarry from the Pittsburgh Penguins and trading Stuart Skinner. But this was the better of the two goalies who have served in the Oilers' net over the past three seasons. That means now that the band-aid has been torn off with Skinner, the worst of the goalies, Calvin Pickard, is next to go and something will happen, possibly sooner than later. Elliotte Friedman said, "The Oilers poked around Alex Lyon...It wasn't as seriou...

This isn’t the first time the Edmonton Oilers have given up on a 27-year-old goaltender. On Friday morning, the Oilers sent Stuart Skinner (along with Brett Kulak and a 2029 second-round pick) to the Pittsburgh Penguins for Tristan Jarry and Sam Poulin.

Stuart Skinner spent eight seasons in the Edmonton Oilers organization. He was thrust into the starting role in the 2022-23 season after only playing 14 games as a backup in 2021 and 2022. Heck, he played six playoff games in 2022 with only 14 regular season games under his belt. He did it in hometown…

The Edmonton Oilers had a very busy morning by making two trades to finally address goaltending. Regardless of how many seem to be feeling and overreacting to the Oilers acquiring Jarry from the Pittsburgh Penguins , they have also struck a deal with the Nashville Predators to acquire Spencer Stastney, a young defenseman. The Oilers traded Stuart Skinner, Brett Kulak, and a 2029 second-round pick to the Penguins for Jarry and Samuel Poulin, so they brought in a starter with a .909 career SV% a...
