Tristan Jarry Looks to Bounce Back From Off Year, Stand Out in Crowded Oilers Crease
With seven goalies in camp, Jarry is set to start the season opener as Frederik Andersen recovers from a knee injury.
- The Edmonton Oilers confirmed Tristan Jarry will start in net for the season opener on September 29, taking the lead role while managing a crowded goaltending roster heading into the campaign.
- Frederik Andersen remains sidelined after suffering a knee injury during the playoffs with the Carolina Hurricanes, with the Oilers expecting him to return in late October, complicating the initial rotation.
- General manager Stan Bowman expressed confidence in Jarry, noting he "worked hard all summer" and arrived in excellent form; Jarry posted a 9-6-2 record with a 3.86 goals-against average in 19 games last season.
- Devon Levi, acquired in an off-season trade with the Buffalo Sabres, backs up Jarry; the Oilers plan to carry three goalies once Frederik Andersen returns later this season.
- Facing high expectations in Edmonton, Jarry acknowledged the "pressure everywhere" but emphasized his focus on winning. "To be the goalie for that, it would be something special," he said regarding Stanley Cup goals.
