  • 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

    Pickard will guard the road goal versus the Blackhawks on Saturday, according to Tony Brar of Oilers TV.

    Pickard has won five of his last six starts, surrendering 15 goals on 154 shots. He has a 9-4-0 record with a 2.46 GAA and an .898 save percentage through 15 appearances this season. Chicago sits 29th in the league with 2.55 goals per game in 2024-25.

  • Oilers' Calvin Pickard: Part of combined shutout win

    Pickard logged 5:25 of ice time in the first period of Tuesday's 4-0 win over the Bruins.

    Stuart Skinner had to leave the game late in the first period after a collision, and Pickard didn't face a shot while coming into the game cold. Skinner was good to go after the intermission. Pickard has typically started roughly once a week this season -- every three-to-four games -- but if Skinner has any lingering issues, he could be called upon sooner. The Oilers' road trip has two stops left, as they'll be in Pittsburgh on Thursday and in Chicago on Saturday.

  • Oilers' Calvin Pickard: Little work in win

    Pickard stopped 15 of 17 shots in Saturday's 4-2 win over the Kraken.

    Pickard earned his fifth win in his last six starts. He didn't have much to do in this contest, though the Kraken were a little opportunistic to cut the deficit to one goal before Leon Draisaitl's empty-netter sealed the Oilers' win. For the season, Pickard is 9-4-0 with a 2.48 GAA and an .898 save percentage over 14 appearances. He's seeing roughly one-third of the starts, so it wouldn't be surprising to see Pickard start one of the three road games the Oilers have next week -- they visit Boston on Tuesday, Pittsburgh on Thursday and Chicago on Saturday.

  • Oilers' Calvin Pickard: Guarding goal in Seattle

    Pickard will start on the road versus the Kraken on Saturday, Tony Brar of Oilers TV reports.

    Pickard will get the nod in the second half of a back-to-back after Stuart Skinner won on home ice over the Ducks on Friday. Pickard has routinely started once every three to four games since the start of November, going 5-3-0 with a 2.53 GAA and an .899 save percentage in that span. Saturday's contest is the start of a four-game road trip for the Oilers.

  • Oilers' Calvin Pickard: First loss in over a month

    Pickard conceded four goals on 27 shots in Sunday's 5-3 loss to the Ducks. The fifth marker was an empty-netter.

    Pickard had a rare subpar performance in the defeat -- it was just the second time through 13 appearances that he's allowed more than three goals in a game. The 32-year-old hadn't been tagged with a loss since Nov. 18, as he had won four consecutive contests prior to Sunday. Pickard has been a formidable backup to Stuart Skinner in 2024-25, posting an 8-4-0 record, 2.51 GAA and .898 save percentage.

  • Oilers' Calvin Pickard: Facing Ducks

    Pickard will guard the road net Sunday in Anaheim, Tony Brar of Oilers TV reports.

    Pickard has won his last four starts, stopping 96 of 105 shots in that span. Overall, he's 8-3-0 with a .901 save percentage and 2.38 GAA while backing up Stuart Skinner this season.

  • Oilers' Calvin Pickard: Fourth win in row

    Pickard made 20 saves Saturday in 3-2 overtime win over San Jose.

    Pickard is riding a personal four-game win streak, and he's 8-3-0 with a 2.37 GAA and a .901 save percentage in 11 starts. He and Stuart Skinner have combined for a 10-2-0 record over the Oilers' last 12 games. Skinner will likely start against Ottawa on Sunday, and then the two men will probably split a back-to-back Dec. 28 (Kings) and Dec. 29 (Ducks). Pickard will get the first game if the coach's pattern over the last three back-to-backs holds true.

  • Oilers' Calvin Pickard: Set to start Saturday

    Pickard will defend the home crease against the Sharks on Saturday, Oilers play-by-play announcer Jack Michaels reports.

    Pickard has made 11 appearances this season, going 7-3-0 with a 2.41 GAA and .901 save percentage. He'll draw the start in the first half of a back-to-back set Saturday, meaning that Stuart Skinner will likely tend the twine against the Senators on Sunday. Pickard will have a favorable matchup Saturday, as the Sharks average just 2.74 goals per game, which is the ninth-worst mark in the league.

  • Oilers' Calvin Pickard: Stops 29 shots Thursday

    Pickard stopped 29 of 30 shots in Thursday's 7-1 win over the Wild.

    The Oilers delivered one of their best offensive performances in recent memory, but even if that hadn't been the case, Pickard made sure he'd provide enough support to the offense by stopping all but one of the shots on goal he faced. Pickard is firmly entrenched in a backup role, but he's making his presence felt when his number gets called. He's won his last three starts, posting a 2.32 GAA and a .916 save percentage in that span.
