The Oilers Are Still Looking for a Goalie
Edmonton Oilers Struggle to Find a Goalie
The Oilers have struggled to find a goalie since trading away Cam Talbot in 2019.
The Edmonton Oilers are still looking for a goalie. The Oilers have been without a true number one goalie since trading away Cam Talbot in 2019. Since then, the Oilers have tried a number of different goalies, including Mikko Koskinen, Mike Smith, and Stuart Skinner, but none have been able to consistently get the job done.
The Oilers' goaltending woes have been a major factor in their struggles in recent years. The Oilers have missed the playoffs in each of the past two seasons, and they are currently in danger of missing the playoffs again this year. If the Oilers want to be a contender, they need to find a goalie who can give them consistent starts.
There are a few goalies who could be available in a trade this offseason. The Oilers could target a goalie like Marc-Andre Fleury or Jaroslav Halak, who are both experienced and have a proven track record of success. The Oilers could also try to sign a free agent goalie like Braden Holtby or Anton Khudobin.
No matter who the Oilers end up with, they need to find a goalie who can give them consistent starts. The Oilers have a lot of talent on their roster, but they won't be able to win consistently if they don't have a goalie who can keep them in games.
