Trade Pitch Brings Laurent Brossoit Back to Edmonton
The Edmonton Oilers have been linked to just about every goalie in the NHL in recent years as they searched for an upgrade on the tandem of Stuart Skinner and Calvin Pickard.
Looking for a spark amid a slow start and additional depth due to a series of injuries to their roster, the Edmonton Oilers made two trades on Friday morning.
The Pittsburgh Penguins returned home Tuesday in a matchup against the Edmonton Oilers, amounting to a revenge game for both teams' starting goalies, Stuart Skinner and Tristan Jarry. Four days after the franchises swapped goalies, they faced their former teams, and in Skinner's case, he made his Penguins debut.
The Oilers have been connected to several veteran goaltenders of various quality with unattractive contracts. Jordan Binnington of the St. Louis Blues has a $6 million cap hit in 2026-27, and Tristan Jarry of the Pittsburgh Penguins has two years left at $5.375 million.
Things have not gone according to plan for Edmonton Oilers forward Trent Frederic this season, and the analytics agree.
Calvin Pickard revealed the truth behind his hugs with Stuart Skinner and the trade. Pickard expressed the emotional impact of losing close teammates Skinner and Brett Kulak mid-season. The Edmonton Oilers dropped a 4-1 decision to the Montreal Canadiens on Sunday, ending their five-game point streak.
Friday night, Connor Ryckman, Vaughn’s equipment rep who works out of the London factory, loaded the equipment into his car and drove it two and a half hours northeast to the Oilers’ team hotel in downtown Toronto. Lang received it there and brought it with the team to Scotiabank Arena for the Oilers’ skate the following morning.
The Edmonton Oilers are in Boston to face the Bruins, looking for their second straight win on the road Thursday night.
