The Pressure Rises On The Oilers' Goaltending Again

Feb 4, 2026

Calvin Pickard was waived on Sunday after not playing since Jan. 8. He has a 5-6-2 record, 3.68 goals-against average and .871 save percentage in 16 appearances. But the promotion of Connor Ingram and the acquisition of Tristan Jarry essentially pushed Pickard out of the top of the Oilers' depth chart – and now, the pressure has clearly shifted to Jarry and Ingram.

Jarry has a 3.59 GAA, .873 SP and one shutout in 10 games since the Oilers acquired him from the Pittsburgh Penguins. In his last seven games, Jarry had an SP of .882 or worse five times.

The Oilers' new goalie tandem, Tristan Jarry and Connor Ingram, has had hot moments but struggled in the past week-and-a-half. It's not time to panic, but the pressure's increasing.
