Poor goaltending derails Oilers despite offensive fireworks.
The Edmonton Oilers are experiencing a significant downturn this season, dropping from a 62.0% points pace to 54.2% despite an increase in goals scored. This regression is primarily due to a major decline in goaltending performance, with Tristan Jarry posting an .883 SV% and 3.39 GAA, a substantial drop from last season's .895 SV% and 2.81 GAA. While Evan Bouchard (proj. 91 pts vs 67 last season) and Zach Hyman (proj. 56 pts vs 44 last season) are having breakout years, the team's defensive liabilities, exacerbated by poor netminding, are too much to overcome, leading to a much higher goals-against average.
