Pickard is thriving as Edmonton's top netminder. He has allowed exactly two goals in four straight starts as the Oilers' No. 1 netminder in the absence of Stuart Skinner (head), going 3-1-0 over that stretch with a .925 save percentage. His hot stretch has helped Edmonton all but secure a playoff berth and top-three seed in the Pacific Division. Even when Skinner returns, Pickard may retain the starting job based on his fine play between the pipes. He has a strong chance to notch a win with a large number of saves versus the Ducks based on how the two teams are playing.
If for some reason you are feeling really daring, take a flier on Lukas Dostal or Alexandar Georgiev, But each of those netminders are a higher risk option.
