This will be a massive opportunity for Calvin Pickard to take the net and run with it. It will also be his first start in the postseason in his NHL career.

It will be Pickard's first career playoff start
After Stuart Skinner gave up 4 goals on just 15 shots a change was likely needed. Now the Edmonton Oilers go into Game 4 down in the series and rely on a goaltender in a new situation. All eyes will be on Calvin Pickard to see if he can handle the bright lights.
