  • Oilers' Calvin Pickard: Excellent vs. Isles

    Pickard stopped 24 of 25 shots in Friday's 2-1 overtime win over the Islanders.

    Pickard was making his first start since March 4 against Anaheim when he gave up four goals on 11 shots before being replaced after one period. He bounced back admirably in Friday's victory en route to one of his best performances of 2024-25. Pickard will continue backing up Stuart Skinner, but his fantasy upside going forward will be limited if Skinner sees the bulk of the playing time. Pickard is a decent streaming option, but the matchup will play a significant role in his fantasy appeal.

  • Oilers' Calvin Pickard: Tending twine Friday

    Pickard will start in goal on the road versus the Islanders on Friday, Daniel Nugent-Bowman of The Athletic reports.

    Pickard hasn't seen the ice since he was pulled from a March 4 game versus the Ducks after giving up four goals on 11 shots. He'll get a chance to redeem himself here in the second half of a back-to-back as the Oilers try to salvage a road trip that's started 0-2-0.

  • Oilers' Calvin Pickard: Chased after one period

    Pickard stopped seven of 11 shots in one period of Tuesday's 6-2 loss to the Ducks.

    Pickard held firm early in the contest, but he gave up four goals in a span of 6:41 to close out the first period. Stuart Skinner took over in goal for the final two frames. The loss still belonged to Pickard, his third in five outings dropping him to 15-7-0 with a 2.76 GAA and an .896 save percentage through 24 appearances this season. It'll likely be Skinner between the pipes for Thursday's game versus the Canadiens. Given Pickard's recent struggles, it's possible the Oilers will pursue a goalie at the trade deadline.

  • Oilers' Calvin Pickard: Slated to start Tuesday

    Pickard is expected to guard the home crease versus the Ducks on Tuesday, Jason Gregor of Sports 1440 Edmonton reports.

    Pickard is coming off a solid 35-save victory over the Hurricanes on Saturday and will get the opportunity to make consecutive appearances for just the fourth time this year. It would likely take an extended run of form for the 32-year-old backstop to steal the starting job away from Stuart Skinner, but it's certainly not an impossible task.

  • Oilers' Calvin Pickard: Strong outing in win

    Pickard allowed just one goal while stopping 35 shots in Saturday's 3-1 road win over the Hurricanes.

    Pickard was perfect at even strength for the Oilers as the lone goal he allowed was to Sebastian Aho during a Carolina power play. With the win, the 32-year-old Pickard is up to a 15-6-0 record with a 2.61 GAA and a .901 save percentage. Saturday's win was Pickard's first since Feb. 5, when he had a five-game winning streak. The Oilers' backup goaltender has been one of the better relief options in net this season, allowing four goals or more only three times this season. Pickard is a strong streaming option in all fantasy formats when he is slated to start with Edmonton's stacked skating core in front of him.

  • Oilers' Calvin Pickard: Starting in Carolina

    Pickard will get the road start Saturday against the Hurricanes, Tony Brar of Oilers TV reports.

    Pickard struggled in his first start out of the break, allowing six goals on 34 shots in a loss to the Capitals on Sunday. The 32-year-old netminder is 14-6-0 with a 2.69 GAA and an .896 save percentage in 22 appearances this season. Carolina is tied with Edmonton for eighth in the league with 3.25 goals per game this campaign.

  • Oilers' Calvin Pickard: Scorched By Capitals

    Pickard turned aside 27 of 33 shots faced during Sunday's 7-3 road loss to the Capitals.

    Pickard got staked to an early lead before the high-octane Capitals roared back in a duel of backup netminders. The 32-year-old will fall to 14-6-0 in 22 starts and has now dropped consecutive decisions after a five-game win streak during the month of January.

  • Oilers' Calvin Pickard: In goal Sunday

    Pickard will defend the road net versus Washington on Sunday, according to Tony Brar of Oilers TV.

    Pickard will get the second half of Edmonton's back-to-back after Stuart Skinner played in Saturday's 6-3 loss to Philadelphia. The 32-year-old Pickard has a 14-5-0 record with a 2.52 GAA and a .901 save percentage in 21 appearances this season. Washington sits first in the league with 3.64 goals per game in 2024-25 and posted an 8-3 win over Pittsburgh on Saturday.

  • Oilers' Calvin Pickard: Loses in relief Friday

    Pickard allowed two goals on 19 shots in relief of Stuart Skinner in Friday's 5-4 loss to the Avalanche.

    That's a tough way for a six-game winning streak to end. Pickard entered at the start of the second period with the Oilers down 3-2, and while he outplayed Skinner's poor performance, Pickard was responsible for Martin Necas' game-winning goal in the third. For the season, Pickard is now 14-5-0 with a 2.52 GAA and a .901 save percentage over 21 appearances. The Oilers' season resumes Feb. 22 in Philadelphia, followed by a visit to the Capitals on Feb. 23, so both Pickard and Skinner should start one game each just after the end of the 4 Nations Face-Off.

  • Oilers' Calvin Pickard: Earns overtime win

    Pickard stopped 29 of 32 shots in Wednesday's 4-3 overtime win over the Blackhawks.

    The Blackhawks rallied from two goals down to force overtime, but the Oilers won it with a power-play tally in the extra session. Pickard has now won his last six decisions, allowing a total of 15 goals over seven outings in that span. He's been reliable when called upon, though he often handles easier matchups. The 32-year-old is 14-4-0 with a 2.50 GAA and a .901 save percentage over 20 appearances this season. Pickard will likely be back in the backup role for Friday's tough home game against the Avalanche.

  • Oilers' Calvin Pickard: Starting Wednesday

    Pickard will guard the road goal Wednesday versus the Blackhawks.

    Pickard will get the second half of a back-to-back after Stuart Skinner took a 3-2 overtime win over the Blues on Tuesday. The 32-year-old Pickard has won his last five decisions over six games, allowing 12 goals on 128 shots (.906 save percentage) in that span. He'll have a favorable matchup in this contest and should be deployed in most fantasy formats.

  • Oilers' Calvin Pickard: Earns win vs. Kraken

    Pickard stopped 26 of 28 shots in Monday's 4-2 win over the Kraken.

    Pickard got the start Monday because Stuart Skinner wasn't available, as he's expecting the birth of his child shortly, and he delivered a solid showing between the pipes. The 32-year-old veteran has won each of his last four starts in January, posting a 2.51 GAA and a .909 save percentage in that stretch.

  • Oilers' Calvin Pickard: Between pipes against Seattle

    Pickard will tend the twine during Monday's home game against the Kraken, Oilers play-by-play announcer Jack Michaels reports.

    Although Pickard has seen somewhat sporadic playing time in January, he's been sharp when called upon, going 4-0-0 with a 2.46 GAA and .900 save percentage over five appearances. However, he'll start for the second time in the last three games since Stuart Skinner is expecting the birth of his child shortly. Pickard made a start in Seattle on Jan. 4 and turned aside 16 of 18 shots (.889 save percentage) en route to a 4-2 win.

  • Oilers' Calvin Pickard: Earns fourth straight win

    Pickard allowed two goals on 26 shots in Thursday's 6-2 win over the Canucks.

    Pickard has won his last four starts, allowing a total of 10 goals in those games. The Canucks were down 5-0 before they got on the board, but Pickard never let them threaten the Oilers' lead. Overall, the 32-year-old netminder improved to 12-4-0 with a 2.50 GAA and an .899 save percentage over 18 appearances. The Oilers' next three matchups are all fairly favorable and at home, so it wouldn't be surprising to see Pickard get at least one game in that stretch to avoid overworking Stuart Skinner.

  • Oilers' Calvin Pickard: Between pipes against Canucks

    Pickard will tend the twine at home versus Vancouver on Thursday, Mark Spector of Sportsnet reports.

    Pickard is 3-0-0 in his last three appearances while sporting a 2.59 GAA and .892 save percentage. While the 32-year-old netminder shouldn't be expected to challenge Stuart Skinner for the starting job in Edmonton, he may force the Oilers to give him more opportunities in the crease if he keeps winning.

  • Oilers' Calvin Pickard: Secures win in Minnesota

    Pickard stopped 31 of 34 shots in Wednesday's 5-3 win over the Wild.

    Pickard fell behind early as the Wild scored twice on the power play in the first period. Over the final two frames, the 32-year-old goalie was dialed in, giving up just one more goal off a faceoff play, while the Oilers' offense gave him enough support for the win. Pickard has won three of his last four outings, with the lone exception being a brief relief appearance. He's now 11-4-0 with a 2.53 GAA and an .897 save percentage over 17 appearances. Stuart Skinner is likely to start Thursday at Colorado.

  • Oilers' Calvin Pickard: Slated to start Wednesday

    Pickard is set to start on the road against Minnesota on Wednesday, according to Tony Brar of Oilers TV.

    Pickard has a 10-4-0 record, 2.50 GAA and .896 save percentage in 16 appearances in 2024-25. He stopped 19 of 22 shots en route to a 4-3 win over Chicago in his last start Saturday. The Wild are a high-end opponent with a commanding 27-13-4 record, though they're mediocre in terms of goals per game, tying for 17th with 2.95.

  • Oilers' Calvin Pickard: Rallies for win No. 10

    Pickard turned aside 19 shots in Saturday's 4-3 win over Chicago.

    The veteran netminder looked a little sluggish in the first period, reacting a heartbeat too slowly and allowing short-side goals to Teuvo Teravainen and Nick Foligno, but Pickard got his bearings and shut the door over the second half of the game as the Oilers mounted a comeback from a 3-1 deficit. He has just one regulation loss since the beginning of December over seven appearances, and on the season Pickard is 10-4-0 with a 2.50 GAA and .896 save percentage.

  • Oilers' Calvin Pickard: Starting in Chicago
