The Edmonton Oilers claimed goaltender Alex Stalock off waivers from the Minnesota Wild on Monday.
Stalock, 33, will have to complete a 14-day quarantine after crossing the U.S.-Canada border before he is eligible to join the Oilers.
He has not played this season while recovering from an upper-body injury. In his absence, the Wild turned to veteran Cam Talbot as the backup to Kaapo Kahkonen.
