Olivier Rodrigue (born July 6, 2000) is a Canadian professional ice hockey goaltender who is currently an unrestricted free agent. He has previously played in the National Hockey League (NHL) with the Edmonton Oilers.[1]

Playing career

Rodrigue was drafted sixty-second overall by the Oilers in the 2018 NHL entry draft. The Oilers traded up to draft him.

During the 2024–25 season, he made his NHL debut with the Oilers on March 27, 2025, in relief of Calvin Pickard in a 6–1 loss to the Seattle Kraken, allowing 1 goal on 8 shots.[2]

As an impending restricted free agent, Rodrigue was not tendered a qualifying offer by the Oilers and was released as a free agent. On August 14, 2025, Rodrigue signed his first contract abroad in agreeing to a one-year deal with Barys Astana of the Kontinental Hockey League (KHL), for the 2025–26 season.[3] However, in September 2025, Rodrigue suffered an injury in training, followed by a mutual termination of his contract before he played a game with the team.[4]
