Oilers Need Hot Goalie Now

from Terry Jones of the Edmonton Sun,
Mathieu Garon has essentially been declared the new starting goaltender of the Edmonton Oilers because if the Oilers don’t win four out of five on the current homestand, you can probably kiss the playoffs goodbye.
If they don’t win seven or eight out of 10 prior to the all-star break, you can consider their season to be toast.
The Oilers can’t wait for spring. They have to do it now.

The Oilers have the shootout to thank for even being in the playoff picture. That said, they will not be making the playoffs this season and will continue to struggle as long as the old guard (i.e. MacT and KLowe) are retained.
