On the way to the first Stanley Cup triumph since 1990, the Edmonton Oilers was the performance of both goalies, Stuart Skinner and Calvin Pickard last season. It is quite conceivable that a new goalkeeper will find the way to Alberta. There is nothing to be rumored to scandal keeper Carter Hart.
NHL-insider Kevin Weekes recently speculated that the Oilers were interested in signing the 26-year-old, who has been without a team since summer 2024. Most recently, the gold station was active for the Philadelphia Flyers, which, however, let the working paper run out.
The reason for this was that hard next to Dillon Dubé, Michael McLeod, Callan Foote and Alex Formenton was accused of joint sexual coercion. The allegations relate to an act that is said to have taken place in June 2018 at a gala event of Hockey Canada in June 2018.
Reports about Oilers interest are “wrong”
The five participating players were charged by the public prosecutor under Canadian law. The process is currently still in full swing, the quintet is waiting for a judge’s judgment. This will probably make a significant decision as to whether hard and Co. will play again in the NHL.
“I have spoken to Carter a few times and I am very impressed by him. The case they speak is difficult. The decision is made by a judge, not by a jury,” said NHL -insider Bob Stauffer recently at X. However, he assumes that all players involved are blocked – regardless of the outcome of the procedure.
According to Oilers insider Jason Gregor, the Canadian is out of the question for Edmonton anyway. Reports on the Stanley Cup finalist’s interest in the scandal goalkeeper are “wrong”, according to the journalist’s report Sports 1440.
