  • Oilers' Stuart Skinner: Yields five goals in loss

    Skinner allowed five goals on 26 shots in Wednesday's 5-4 overtime loss to the Kings in Game 2.

    Skinner is now 1-1 in the postseason, having allowed nine goals on 63 shots. He's given up at least four goals in three straight games, something he didn't do in the seven outings prior to his recent struggles. The Oilers will likely continue to roll with Skinner in goal, though it could be up to the offense to cover up his mistakes in a first-round series that has not been kind to the goalies so far. The next game is Friday in Los Angeles.

  • Oilers' Stuart Skinner: Slated to face LA

    Skinner is set to start at home against the Kings for Game 2 on Wednesday, per Jason Gregor of Sports 1440 Edmonton.

    Skinner allowed four goals on 37 shots versus LA in Game 1 on Monday, but he got plenty of goal support en route to a 7-4 victory. He's typically done better against the Kings, posting a 4-1-0 record, 2.39 GAA and a .926 save percentage over five contests this year, including four regular-season outings. The Kings also left something to be desired offensively during the regular season, finishing the campaign in a tie for 16th offensively with 3.10 goals per contest.

  • Oilers' Stuart Skinner: Grabs Game 1 win

    Skinner stopped 33 of 37 shots in Monday's 7-4 win over the Kings in Game 1.

    The Oilers jumped out to a 4-0 lead before the Kings got on the board, so Skinner's ability to protect the lead was never in question. The 25-year-old went 36-16-5 with a 2.62 GAA and a .905 save percentage over 59 contests as a full-time starter during the regular season. Skinner will benefit from the offense in front of him, though the Oilers' defensive issues could spell trouble for the netminder down the line. Game 2 is Wednesday in Edmonton.

  • Oilers' Stuart Skinner: Struggles in finale

    Skinner allowed four goals on 13 shots before he was replaced by Calvin Pickard in the second period of Thursday's 5-1 loss to the Avalanche. Skinner was credited with the defeat.

    It certainly wasn't what Skinner had in mind for his final tune-up before the postseason -- the Avs scored four times in the first 10:17 of the opening period before Skinner was replaced by Pickard to start the second. The 25-year-old Skinner had won three of his previous four outings prior to Thursday, posting a .921 save percentage in that span. He'll wrap up the regular season at 36-16-5 with a .905 save percentage and 2.62 GAA. Skinner figures to be back between the pipes when the Oilers open the playoffs Monday at home versus the Kings.

  • Oilers' Stuart Skinner: Starting in Colorado

    Skinner will guard the road goal versus the Avalanche on Thursday, per the NHL media site.

    Skinner has gone 3-1-1 with 10 goals allowed on 118 shots over five outings in April. He'll get one more tune-up versus the Avalanche in preparation for the playoffs. Skinner may have a tough time getting a win, as the Oilers' entire top line and first defense pairing is being rested for Thursday's game, while the Avalanche will have all of their key players in the lineup.

  • Oilers' Stuart Skinner: Cruises to win Monday

    Skinner stopped 19 of 21 shots in Monday's 9-2 win over the Sharks.

    The Oilers erupted for four goals in the first period and followed it up with a five-goal second, giving Skinner one of his easiest wins of the year. The 25-year-old has won five of his last seven outings, giving up 14 goals in that span. He's at 36-15-5 with a 2.57 GAA and a .907 save percentage through 58 appearances this season. The Oilers have a road back-to-back left on the schedule with stops in Arizona on Wednesday and Colorado on Thursday, so both Skinner and Calvin Pickard should be penciled in for one more start in the regular season.

  • Oilers' Stuart Skinner: Tending twine Monday

    Skinner will get the starting nod at home against the Sharks on Monday, per the NHL's media site.

    Skinner stopped 24 of 26 shots in a tough-luck loss to Vancouver in his last appearance. He's 4-1-1 over his last six outings with an impressive 2.00 GAA during that span. On the year, Skinner has gone 35-15-5 with a 2.58 GAA and a .907 save percentage through 57 games.

  • Oilers' Stuart Skinner: Loses to Canucks

    Skinner stopped 24 of 26 shots in Saturday's 3-1 loss to the Canucks. The third goal was an empty-netter.

    Skinner didn't get much help from his teammates in this contest, leading to his first regulation loss in six starts. He's been alternating games with Calvin Pickard since the end of March, and that seems likely to continue with the Oilers nearly locked into the No. 2 seed in the Pacific Division. Skinner is now 35-15-5 with a 2.58 GAA and a .907 save percentage over 57 outings. The Oilers' last home game of the regular season is Monday versus the Sharks before a road back-to-back with stops Wednesday in Arizona and Thursday in Colorado.

  • Oilers' Stuart Skinner: Stops 18 in win

    Skinner stopped 18 of 19 shots in Wednesday's 5-1 victory over the Golden Knights.

    It wasn't Skinner's busiest night, but he was sharp when called upon, blanking Vegas through the first two periods before allowing a lone shorthanded tally to Keegan Kolesar in the third. The 25-year-old netminder has won four of his last five starts, improving to 35-14-5 with a .907 save percentage and 2.59 GAA on the season. The Oilers are back in action at home Friday against the Coyotes.

  • Oilers' Stuart Skinner: Gets win over Avalanche

    Skinner stopped 21 of 23 shots in Friday's 6-2 win over the Avalanche.

    In a battle of two Western Conference scoring juggernauts, Skinner was able to find a bit more success than Alexandar Georgiev. This wasn't a gem from Skinner by any means, but he settled in after allowing a pair of first-period tallies. The 25-year-old netminder has won four of his last six games, allowing 17 goals over that span. He's now at 34-14-5 with a 2.54 GAA and a .906 save percentage through 55 appearances. The Oilers are back in action at Calgary on Saturday, a game that will likely see Calvin Pickard between the pipes.

  • Oilers' Stuart Skinner: Set to defend cage Friday

    Skinner is slated to tend the twine at home versus the Avalanche on Friday.

    Skinner has suffered just one regulation loss in his last 13 appearances, posting an 8-1-3 record to go with a 2.34 GAA and .922 save percentage over that stretch. With a back-to-back up next on the schedule, Calvin Pickard will likely get the nod versus the Flames on the road Saturday. Still, Skinner should see the majority of the workload down the stretch and into the postseason.

  • Oilers' Stuart Skinner: Falls in overtime

    Skinner allowed three goals on 29 shots in Monday's 3-2 overtime loss to St. Louis.

    It's the second loss in Skinner's last five starts -- he'd gone 3-1-0 in his prior four outings despite a mediocre .890 save percentage in that span. Overall, the 25-year-old Skinner is 33-14-5 with a .906 save percentage and 2.63 GAA this season. He'll likely be back in net Wednesday when the Oilers visit Dallas.

  • Oilers' Stuart Skinner: Leads team to win

    Skinner stopped 31 of the Kings' 32 shots to lead Edmonton to a 4-1 victory Thursday.

    Skinner entered Thursday's contest coming off three straight shaky starts, during which he allowed 11 goals with an .857 save percentage. He's been streaky all season, with stretches of impressive play followed by strings of sub-par play. Prior to that three-game slump he had seven straight games with a save percentage of .920 or higher. Before that run? Six straight at .895 or worse. Fortunately for fantasy managers, even when he's not at the top of his game, Edmonton has been good enough to collect wins, maintaining Skinner's fantasy utility.

  • Oilers' Stuart Skinner: Defending crease against Kings

    Skinner will be in goal versus Los Angeles at home Thursday, Tony Brar of Oilers TV reports.

    Skinner has given up three or more goals in each of his last four outings but he still managed to secure a 2-1-1 record over that stretch. With a supporting cast that includes world-class center Connor McDavid, the 25-year-old Skinner should be able to continue to get by without having to be perfect. Simply good enough should do for the Edmonton native Skinner to keep collecting wins.

  • Oilers' Stuart Skinner: Grabs OT win

    Skinner stopped 22 of 25 shots in Tuesday's 4-3 overtime victory over Winnipeg.

    After the Jets scored just once in the first two periods, Skinner allowed a pair of goals within a minute in the third. However, Zach Hyman tallied the game-winner 1:22 into overtime, giving Skinner the victory. The 25-year-old netminder has struggled a bit recently, posting an .857 over his last three starts, though he's gone 2-1-0 in that span behind Edmonton's high-powered offense. Skinner's now 32-14-4 on the year with a .905 save percentage and a 2.66 GAA. He'll likely be back in net Thursday when the Oilers host Los Angeles.
