Former Silvertips Goalie Made NHL Debut During Oilers Kraken Game In Edmonton.

Yahoo28-01-2025
Edmonton, AL - Former Silvertips goaltender Tyler Palmer made his NHL debut Monday night as the Oilers' emergency backup goalie against the Seattle Kraken. Palmer backed up starter Calvin Pickard while Stuart Skinner was on paternity leave, celebrating the birth of his son with his wife, Chloe.
Palmer, who aged out of the WHL in 2024, played almost two seasons with the Everett Silvertips. During the 2023-24 campaign Palmer made 46 appearances, earned a 30-9-2 record and was named WHL goalie of the week in April 2024. The 6' Fernie, BC native was awarded Humanitarian of the Year in 2024 for personally donating $2 to the Faith food bank for every save he made during home games that ran during the 2023 holiday break season.
Palmer currently plays for the University of Alberta Golden Bears in the Canadian USports League where he has put up an 11-4-0 record to go with a 2.21 goals-against average and a .921 save percentage.
While Palmer's only time on the ice came during the Oilers' pregame warmups, Silvertips fans in the Pacific Northwest were excited to see a fan favorite get the opportunity. The Kraken ultimately fell to the Oilers 4-2.

Palmer was first asked if he knew about his valuation in FPL this year, which the Chelsea star answered correctly. He was then asked to share his thoughts on the figure, to which the attacking midfielder replied: "Bit dear." Then he was asked whether everyone should have him in their team, to which he answered: "If they want points." He was further pushed on whether he could guarantee goals and assists, to which Palmer replied: "We'll see, won't we?"
