(Pittsburgh, PA) ESPN hockey anaylst Kevin Weeks reported on Wednesday afternoon that Pittsburgh Penguins goaltender Tristan Jarry was “drawing significant interest” from the Edmonton Oilers. The thirty-year-old Jarry signed a five-year extension with the Penguins in July of 2023, but in January of 2025, he was put on waivers when he was struggling until the Penguins got him back. At that time, Penguins goaltenders had approached a record for the National Hockey League for the most goals allowed on the first shot of the game. The Oilers, who are the NHL’s Western Conference Champions of the last two seasons, has a need for goaltenders, as they try to make it back to the Stanley Cup Final for the third time in a row.
