I don't know what Spector is talking about. Their problems are goaltending and coaching. They fired their coach and relegated their starting goalie to the AHL.

Problems have been addressed.

Has Pickard even been given a start yet?

Guys like Spector and Staples yap & wine about goaltending. What they expect, and what the Oilers need, is for goaltenders to STEAL games, not just win games. Goaltending to cover up for any and all defensive miscues.

This season Oiler goaltending has not won them games, but it also hasn't lost them games either. Their save % isn't great, but it kind of lines up with their defensive acumen.
