Calvin Pickard Earns Third Consecutive Start
4 years agoDetroit Red Wings goaltender Calvin Pickard makes a third consecutive start on Tuesday against Florida. The 28-year-old has earned Jeff Blashill's trust after carrying the team to back-to-back wins over Columbus last weekend, allowing just one goal in both outings. These were Pickard's first starts of the season. He's had four appearances overall, producing a 2.12 goals-against average and a .904 save percentage in limited playing time. Detroit has lost four of six meetings against the Panthers this season, so Pickard is in a difficult spot to extend his winning streak.
