EDMONTON — The Edmonton Oilers recalled goaltender Calvin Pickard from American Hockey League affiliate Bakersfield on Tuesday.

Pickard, of Moncton N.B., had a 23-12-2 record with a .912 save percentage and a 2.70 goals-against average with the Condors this season.

The 31-year-old has played in 116 NHL games with Colorado, Toronto, Philadelphia, Arizona and Detroit but hasn’t made a playoff appearance yet in his career.

Edmonton netminder Stuart Skinner has started all four games against the Los Angeles Kings so far these playoffs.

In Game 4, Skinner was pulled after allowing three first-period goals. Goaltender Jack Campbell entered in relief and made 27 saves on 28 shots as Edmonton mounted a 5-4 comeback win in overtime.
