There is growing talk about a spat between Tristan Jarry and his Edmonton Oilers teammates from practice last week.

On Monday morning’s edition of his latest 32 Thoughts podcast, Sportsnet’s Elliotte Friedman alluded to it when discussing the Oilers.

“There’s a lot of talk out there about Jarry got into it in practice with some of his teammates out there. It’s been a hard year for the Oilers,” said Friedman, who didn’t dig into the situation any further, but commented on a growing frustration around the team’s inconsistent play.

He referenced comments from Troy Stecher upon leaving Edmonton, as well as how Andrew Mangiapane grew frustrated, as examples of a frustrating season.

“You reach the point where the fun goes away, and it’s like we’re banging our head against the ceiling, and we’re trying to break through. Edmonton, there’s only one place to go. They’ve been in the Final twice in a row, and that’s where I think things get really hard on you, because success is only measured in one way, and losing is painful. And I think a lot of the challenges for the Oilers, I think kind of run through that,” said Friedman.

Jarry started Friday’s game against the Hurricanes in a 6-3 loss, allowing five goals on 31 shots, but rebounding after a tough start.

Bob Stauffer, host of Oilers Now, commented on the Jarry practice situation before the game on Friday.

“There’s some extraneous things that have me quite concerned with Tristan…I can read between the lines of what was going on the ice yesterday in practice. There seemed to be some [expletives] flying. I didn’t like that Jarry, when the Oilers lost 7-3 to Minnesota, talked about how the team is playing defensively in front of him,” said Stauffer.

“I watched him yesterday in practice, and he was getting beat in practice, and finally one of the leaders, you could see him [say], ‘You’ve got to push it more.’ And it’s both goalies. And that’s concerning.”

Ingram got the start against the Vegas Golden Knights and provided 24 saves on 26 shots, while earning his third win in his last four games.

Oilersnation’s Jason Gregor also talked about Jarry in practice last week.

“I watched practice yesterday, and I know it’s only practice, but I was watching drill after drill and Jarry was getting lit up in practice. I haven’t seen a goalie give up that many goals for awhile,” said Gregor, during his show on Sports 1440.

Jarry will likely get back in the net soon, as the team plays three games in four nights on the road this week. The Oilers visit the Presidents’ Trophy favourite Colorado Avalanche on Tuesday, then face the NHL’s second-best team overall in the Dallas Stars on Thursday. They wrap up the trip with a back-to-back on Friday against the St. Louis Blues.

Overall, this is a stretch of eight games in 14 nights for Edmonton.
