Skinner was assigned to AHL Bakersfield on Sunday.

EDGE Analysis

Mike Smith (undisclosed) returned from long-term injured reserve Sunday, so he and Mikko Koskinen will operate as a tandem in the Oilers' crease going forward. Skinner made his NHL debut last Sunday, allowing five goals on 38 shots in a win over the Senators. The 22-year-old will continue his development in the minors.
