Oilers goaltender Calvin Pickard remains out for Game 4 vs. Golden Knights

The Edmonton Oilers won’t have Calvin Pickard between the pipes for Game 4.

Head coach Kris Knoblauch confirmed to reporters that the Oilers goaltender will not be available against the Vegas Golden Knights after he was ruled out for Game 3. Pickard was considered day-to-day with an undisclosed injury.

Pickard appeared uncomfortable and was seen shaking out his left leg after Vegas forward Tomas Hertl landed on his left pad in Game 2 in Las Vegas.

Stuart Skinner took over in Game 3, allowing four goals on 24 shots in a 4-3 loss, with Vegas cutting the Oilers’ series lead to 2-1.
