Oilers trade Pickard and Ekholm to the Penguins for Skinner.

Looked like a groin injury from the highlights. Which is not good for a goalie.

Picard has an .857 save % and 3.91 GAA. Guess they are back to trying to score 7 gosls a game.

Should be just long enough to have Jarry ready for the last month of the season, so they can only use half of his salary.

Or it would be so Edmonton to force his injury to be out for the rest of the yeah after what like 2/3 games with a new team?

It would be more like Edmonton if he suddenly up and retired and got a front office job.

Well, that's not good news... for people cheering for the Flames to tank.


The Oilers have a back-to-back this weekend: Saturday afternoon in Minnesota and Sunday night at home against Vegas. Then, the home-and-home with the Flames around the Christmas break.

Oiler fans now clamouring for Alex Lyon. Is he really any much more of a upgrade over Pickard?

They acquired Ingram and Jarry and now considering of Lyon. Three mediocre backups don't make one starter. Do the Oilers know that you can only play one goalie at a time?

They're going to surgically attach them together into a gestalt goalie with Grant Fuhr's head.

Ingram is the worst goalie in the AHL. Among qualified goalies, he ranks 48th out of 48 in goals against and save %. They'd be better off bringing back Campbell. He's still on the payroll.

He is? Where the hell is he? I thought they buried him somewhere.

Quite honestly I think thats their favorite way to play (to knob's chagrin)

Chaos, diving, making faces at the D and G and stats padding.

####ing ecstasy for their golden brat players.

Crawling back to Campbell would be too delicious.

They bought him out, so he is not an Oiler anymore, but they are still paying him.

According to HFOilers, Buffalo will trade Alex Lyon for a mid round pick and will also take back Tomasek…..

Why would Buffalo do that……

Did anyone see this coming? An injury prone goalie that was going to have to do yoga poses at speed to cover up for boo boos turnovers (although this wasn’t the cause here).

Hopefully Skinner and the third are enjoying Pittsburgh, and kulak wherever he ends up next.
