Overview
- Pickard was placed on waivers on Feb. 1, making him available to other NHL teams during the waiver window.
- If unclaimed, he can be assigned to the AHL’s Bakersfield Condors, which would be his first AHL stint since 2023–24.
- This season he has appeared in 16 games with a 5–6–2 record, a 3.68 goals-against average and an .871 save percentage.
- Ingram has stabilized the position since a late-December call-up, posting a .901 save percentage, a 2.55 goals-against average and a 6–3–1 record in 11 starts.
- Jarry reclaimed an NHL spot after injury and carries a $5.375 million cap hit for two more seasons, while Pickard’s résumé includes 13 playoff appearances over the past two years and a 7–1 mark last postseason, leading some observers to see potential waiver interest.
