The Edmonton Oilers pulled starting goaltender Stuart Skinner after the first period in Game 4 of the Stanley Cup Final on Thursday after he allowed three goals.
Calvin Pickard came out to start the second frame in net.
Skinner has allowed 13 goals over three games dating back to the Oilers' Game 2 loss.
The 26-year-old was shelled early, as Edmonton allowed 17 shots in the opening stanza while taking three penalties.
Skinner entered the game with a 2.84 goals-against average in the playoffs this year and an .894 save percentage. He had become known for big performances in Game 4s, boasting a 6-0 record with a 1.26 GAA and .955 SV% with a pair of shutouts.
Playing in front of Pickard, the Oilers quickly erased the 3-0 deficit, scoring a trio of unanswered goals with 4:55 remaining in the second period. That left Skinner off the hook for a potential loss, maintaining his undefeated streak in Game 4s.
The Oilers ultimately won 5-4 in overtime as Pickard stopped 22 of 23 shots.
