After a heroic performance in relief, should the Edmonton Oilers go with backup Calvin Pickard, or stick with starter Stuart Skinner for Game 5?

    You can argue that Skinner should start Game 5 since he did not play bad in Game 4. However, the analytics seem to suggest that Pickard is more of a clutch performer. Maybe it is just a fluke on a small sample, but Pickard has this Cinderella feel about him at the moment. Kind of a destiny in the making. After all, Pickard lost the starting position in the playoffs due to injury, so maybe karma is speaking. In any case you have to think Pickard deserves the start in game 5 and see what happens. If he plays like a back-up goalie, you can bring back Skinner in Game 6.

    It will be Pick's on Saturday, the Oil play a different style when they are in front of him that will throw the Panthers for loop.
