Tonight, a new report has suggested that the Edmonton Oilers are exploring a major change in goal for Game 4 of their series against the Anaheim Ducks.
The Edmonton Oilers find themselves trailing their first round series against the Anaheim Ducks and surrendering an astonishing number of goals in each game with Connor Ingram starting in goal.
After dropping their most recent game 7-4, reports have now indicated there is a high percentage chance that Tristan Jarry gets an opportunity to start Game 4.
Kris Knoblauch reportedly considering goalie change in pivotal Game 4
According to a report from Oilers insider Mark Spector, rumblings are starting to indicate Tristan Jarry is likely to start Game 4 for the Oilers.
No one is saying anything, but it's feeling more and more plausible that Jarry gets the Game 4 start.
The Oilers clearly need a spark somewhere when it comes to their own end of the rink after giving up 16 goals through three games.
Jarry in 19 appearances for the Oilers really struggled this season with a 3.86 goals against average and a 0.858 save percentage but at this point he might be the better option.
If the Oilers turn to Jarry it will be a calculated risk to try and spark the emotion and defensive fight within the team.
Regardless of who is in the net, the Oilers will need to improve their play in front of said goaltender drastically if they want to come out of this series as the winner.
As more news is provided on Kris Knoblauch’s plan in net for Game 4 we will pass that news along to you.
