The Edmonton Oilers face a pivotal Game 4 against the Anaheim Ducks, trailing 2-1 in their first-round playoff series. Coach Kris Knoblauch has decided to start goalie Tristan Jarry over Connor Ingram following Ingram's struggles, including a league-high 14 goals allowed and a 4.70 goals-against average in the playoffs.
Jarry, who has not played since April 8, hopes to turn the tide for the Oilers, who have scored 12 goals in three games but have also faced criticism for poor defensive play. Meanwhile, Curtis Lazar has provided a boost since entering the lineup, but with Jason Dickinson returning, his spot may be in jeopardy.
The Oilers' captain, Connor McDavid, is also under pressure to elevate his game, with fans expecting a breakout performance to regain momentum. In addition, the Oilers' assistant GM Bill Scott is in the spotlight, interviewing for the vacant GM position with the Vancouver Canucks, which could impact the team's management structure moving forward.
