The Edmonton oilers goaltending troubles may have just been solved
There is a spot in the Edmonton Oilers lineup now that Jack Campbell has been placed on waivers.
Having a good goaltending pair is critical to the team's chances of making the playoffs, and securing a spot in contention means looking at hometown products.So, when do the Oilers give the Flyers a call and go hard after hometown kid Carter Hart?
A player they may want to inquire about is the Philadelphia Flyers' Carter Hart, who has been a great backstop to a terrible team in Philly.
In his 2022-2023 season as Philadelphia's starting goalie, Hart posted a 2.52 GAA and .913 save percentage.
Holland could significantly improve the Oilers' standing and woes in the crease if he made an offer for him.
PHI has been willing to listen o Hart and have made it known they're willing to take on unideal contracts (Campbell?) for the right price.

But what will Ken Holland have to sacrifice in order to return to the playoffs?
Would it be a good idea to move the team's next first-round pick? Could a later pick be combined with Raphael Lavoie and Philip Broberg?
Regardless, Ken Holland needs to pick up the phone and call the hometown boy.
