Skinner will guard the road goal versus the Islanders on Thursday, Stefen Rosner of NHL.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

Skinner shut out the Rangers on Tuesday, so it's not a surprise he'll be rewarded with a second straight start. Calvin Pickard is also in the mix, but if Skinner gets on a good run of play, he'll likely continue to handle a starting role. The Islanders have struggled a bit early on, scoring just seven goals over their first three games.
