Pickard will be between the pipes for Sunday's game in Edmonton, Terry Frei of the Denver Post reports.

Analysis:

Pickard's recent struggles in net have led to a reduced workload, but he will finally get a chance Sunday after backing up for five straight contests. The 23-year-old's splits severely favor home (2.16 GAA, .941 save percentage) over road starts (3.01 GAA, .899 save percentage), so it may be best to avoid him in Edmonton on Sunday. However, he may still be worth targeting when he next starts between the pipes at the Pepsi Center -- whenever that may be.
