Former Boston Bruins Goalie In Talks With Contending Team
FOLLOW US
The Oilers are grappling with a dire situation, undergoing significant changes, including a coaching switch, to reverse their fortunes swiftly.
Despite preseason expectations of being a Cup contender, the team has struggled, winning only five of 17 games with a -16 goal differential.
A major hurdle is goaltending, with Jack Campbell's performance leading to his assignment with the Bakersfield Condors.
Seeking immediate solutions, General Manager Ken Holland is actively exploring trade options and available goaltenders across the NHL.
38-year-old goalie Jaroslav Halak, recently released from his PTO, emerges as a potential remedy for the Oilers' goaltending challenges.
Reports indicate that the team has engaged in discussions with Halak, who brings an impressive career and the flexibility to sign at the league minimum.
With limited trade options and salary cap constraints, signing Halak could be the Oilers' best chance to bolster their goaltending without sacrificing assets.
