Edmonton Oilers goalie Devon Levi did not practise on Friday and will not be available for Saturday’s tilt against the Toronto Maple Leafs, reports TSN’s Ryan Rishaug.

Tristan Jarry will get the start with head coach Mike Babcock confirming the team will also recall a goalie.

Defenceman Mattias Ekholm will also miss Saturday’s game after being injured on Thursday.

Levi started Thursday’s 6-5 shootout win over the Carolina Hurricanes and stopped 22 of 27 shots to earn the victory.

Levi, 24, holds a 6-1-0 record in seven games this season, his first with the Oilers, while posting a 3.11 goals-against average and .887 save percentage.

Jarry, 31, holds a 2-0-1 record with a 2.97 GAA and .873 save percentage.

The Oilers hold an 8-1-1 record and sit first in the Pacific Division.
