I'm sure they are waiting for Carter Hart to be available for next year, maybe some of the other WJ trial guys as well as the Oilers don't care about morals. What's a sexual assault among bros, after all? Right Evander and Perry? But that's next year.
To be fair Stu seems like a good guy, despite how grease fans have treated him, he's sure no Mike Smith.
I think they go back with Pickard and hope and pray the refs fall for the patented Oilers diving.

Stu reminds me of another big Oiler goalie, Devyn Dubnyk. After he left and got some actual coaching he turned out not too bad.
