Oilers’ Calvin Pickard: Struggles in loss

Pickard #Pickard

Pickard allowed three goals on 19 shots in Friday’s 4-2 loss to the Wild. The fourth goal was an empty-netter.

Pickard wasn’t the only problem with the Oilers’ game — they paced play but only converted two of their 43 shots. The loss snapped Pickard’s winning streak at six games. The 31-year-old netminder is down to 7-3-0 with a 2.53 GAA and a .905 save percentage over 11 appearances. Stuart Skinner has struggled lately, but he’ll likely be in goal for the second half of a back-to-back when the Oilers host the Flames on Saturday.
