After allowing 16 goals in their first three games, falling to a 2-1 series deficit to the Anaheim Ducks, the Oilers will turn to Jarry to tend the twine. The 30-year-old Jarry struggled during the regular season with the Oilers, posting an ugly 3.86 GAA and .857 SV% in 19 appearances (9-6-2), eventually losing the starting gig to Connor Ingram. That said, the Oilers are desperate for a spark and hope the goalie change can even the series at 2-2. Edmonton enters Game Four as a -130 road favourite.


With Carolina holding a commanding 3-0 lead over Ottawa, Frederik Andersen is expected to start Game 4 in the Nations Capital on Saturday. The 36-year-old veteran net-minder struggled throughout the regular season but has seen a resurgence in the playoffs, as shown by his 3-0-0 record, 0.84 GAA and .954 SV%. After outscoring the Senators 7-3 through the first three games, he will look to close out the series quickly on the road for Saturday's matinee.
