Tristan Jarry will start for the Edmonton Oilers against the Toronto Maple Leafs on Saturday, Oct. 24, with Devon Levi unavailable because of an injury, Sportsnet reported Friday.

Coach Mike Babcock said Levi would not dress after missing Friday’s practice, and that Edmonton would call up another goaltender to back up Jarry. Sportsnet did not identify the injury or give a timetable for Levi’s return.

Edmonton hosts Toronto at Rogers Place at 7 p.m. ET. Levi played in Thursday’s 6-5 shootout win over Carolina; the NHL’s game report credits him with 22 saves.
