As the Edmonton Oilers get ready for Game 5 of the 2025 Stanley Cup Final, the team has been weighing the possibility of making a change at the goalie position. Goalie Stuart Skinner was pulled from Game 4 after a rough first period.

"Skinner's got a higher upside," former NHL goalie Cory Schneider said. "His best is better than Cal Pickard's."

Greg Wyshynski of ESPN reported that the Oilers will be starting backup goaltender Calvin Pickard over starter Stuart Skinner in Game 5 of the Stanley Cup Playoffs. This comes after Skinner was pulled in Games 3 and 4. Pickard notably backstopped the team to an overtime victory in Game 4.
