ESPN analyst Ray Ferraro says the Edmonton Oilers are “in a tough spot” Ferraro suggested Florida 's Sergei Bobrovsky was a better goalie in the 2025 Final than Edmonton ’s tandem of Stuart Skinner and Calvin Pickard .

Edmonton could try to sign veteran New Jersey goalie Jake Allen as an Unrestricted Free Agents , Ferraro said.

Skinner and Pickard outplayed much more highly-paid and highly-rated goalies in the playoffs this year .

If a starter is available, possibly in a trade for Viktor Arvidsson , Bowman should think hard before pulling the trigger.

Pickard could be kept on as a goalie in Bakersfield in case of injury, or in case either of the other goalies flops.
