Four years after the Edmonton Oilers passed on drafting him in the first round, Jesper Wallstedt made them pay, stopping all 33 shots he faced in the Minnesota Wild’s 1-0 win Tuesday night.

Full marks to anyone who can identify the goaltender in question to the left. He played his last professional game in the ECHL during the 2023-24 season, but it appears he's trying to gain employment in that league again. If you're wondering, he's a former NHL netminder who played for three teams, but has just 40 games to his name despite those three stops. The 32 year-old was drafted 190th-overall in the 2011 NHL Entry Draft, he won an AHL Calder Cup championship in 2017-18, and he's one of 2...

The Edmonton Oilers host the Minnesota Wild tonight at Rogers Place, and here’s the simple truth: this is a casually quiet must-win game. Not because everything falls apart if they don’t. But because beating good teams at home is what playoff teams do. And Minnesota is playing excellent hockey right now. The Wild went 11-1-2…
