We got the long-awaited Oilers goalie trade, with Tristan Jarry coming over from the Penguins . Oh, and before those two deals dropped, we also found out that...

Tristan Jarry’s first game in an Edmonton Oilers jersey was a solid yet unspectacular. He made some great stops, perhaps none better than his breakaway save on Maple Leafs forward John Tavares, but a garbage-time goal by Toronto pushed his save percentage below .900 on the night. Still, he gave the team a chance to…
