Pickard excelled in his first career playoff start in Game 4 as he stopped 19 of 21 shots against (.905 SV%) and will start Game 5 in Vancouver after locking down the starter's net at morning skate. The 32-year-old appeared in his most games played (23) since 2016-17 in the regular season and had a solid 12-7-1 record, 2.45 GAA and .909 SV% while backing up Stuart Skinner all year. He will look to take a series lead on Thursday as Edmonton heads to Vancouver for Game 5.
