The Edmonton Oilers had an impressive showing yesterday as they beat the Winnipeg Jets 3-2 in overtime.

Among the noteworthy performances were Edmonton Oilers net minder Collin Delia who stood strong for the team between the pipes.

According Yahoo Sports, Collin Delia, who spent last season with the Jets' AHL affiliate the Manitoba Moose, came in to replace Rodrigue in the Edmonton net midway through the second.

There was no scoring in the second period, with Edmonton leading 19-9 on the shot clock heading into the third.

Edmonton finally broke the deadlock midway through the third on the power play as Lavoie sent a one-timer from the top of the left circle past Comrie.

That lead only lasted 10 seconds, however, as the Jets knotted the game when Kevin He sent the puck out in front to Toninato and he hammered it past Delia, eventually sending the game to extra time.

According to CBS, Delia will guard the road goal in preseason split-squad action against Calgary on Monday, according to Jason Gregor of Sports 1440 Edmonton.

Delia compiled an 11-19-1 record with a 3.55 GAA and an .872 save percentage across 32 regular-season outings in 2023-24 with AHL Manitoba. With Stuart Skinner and Calvin Pickard set to occupy NHL spots for the Oilers in 2024-25, Delia will likely begin the upcoming campaign in the minors.


Colin Delia will be having a busy few days here for the Oilers. After a great showing for the Oilers against the Jets, Delia is expected to start the Oilers road game against the Calgary Flames.

Puck drop is set for 7:00 PM MT. Fans can stream the game on Oilers + or tune into 630 CHED.
