Join host Nick Zararis on this edition of Locked on Oilers for a wide ranging conversation about the Edmonton Oilers goaltending depth. Nick makes the case as to why Stuart Skinner and Calvin Pickard could probably stand to have more depth behind them, why the market might make a move challenging and why it's probably unlikely.

If the oilers have lowest high score chances given in the NHL, they dont have a bad defense. How do they trail in most games, other than with poor goal-tending? They need a No 1 goalie not a 3rd goalie.

[@MrGamman3yt]

8th in goals against? Yes, Stu needs less work, he's a rookie kinda still.
8yrs w same goalie coach? He breaks goalies.

[@seeker7824]

I wouldn’t be mad at a super quiet low cap add just as a depth option should pickard go down… but I don’t think the tandem should change. There’s a guy down in the A who’s about to be ready, so looking for a guy with term would be stupid in my opinion.

[@robcolbourne5549]

They have an amazing goalie in the system 23 year old Connor Ungar. I THINK IT IS TIME TO BRING HIM UP.

[@kenwardwong4544]

So word has it that the Oliers goalie coach needs to go…what are thoughts on this?

[@alexbelkin5445]

If Oilers ( Skinner ) allow 3 goals in own net every first period, they can’t come back every game. I😂MHO
first period: 3 shots - 1 goal, 6 shots - 2 goals, 10 shots - 3 goals )) Stuuuuuuu)) 😝In how many games does an opposition goalkeeper outperform a mediocre Stuuu?🤪and the Oilers' inconsistent defense isn't top-notch. McDavid - ZERO points but lost puck several times , This channel's "expert" isn't critical enough of some Oilers players. - (UNSUBSCRIBED!)

[@cindyrussell1581]

Yeah and that's what's hurting the Oilers.

[@R.A.5576]

And people didn’t see that, always keep them blaming the defense hahaha

[@MrGamman3yt]

8th in goals against. In league.

[@HyeBye-l7s]

Skinner needs a new coach more than anything I think.

[@MrGamman3yt]

Goalie coach? Yes.
