Bobrovsky has had a disappointing 2025-26 season but seemed to be turning a corner after the Olympic break, posting a solid 2.21 GAA and .925 SV% in five games (3-2-0). However, his string of strong play abruptly ended on Tuesday, allowing five goals on 22 shots (.773 SV%) in a disappointing 5-2 loss to the league-worst Vancouver Canucks. The Panthers enter Thursday's game as +135 road underdogs against an Edmonton Oilers team with points in three straight games (2-0-1).
