Skinner stopped 22 of 25 shots in Friday's 4-1 preseason loss to the Canucks. The fourth goal was an empty-netter.

EDGE Analysis

Skinner ends the preseason at 1-2-0 with nine goals allowed on 75 shots. That's not a particularly encouraging stat line, but the Oilers are likely to find another gear on offense once the games start to count. Skinner is far from a perfect goalie, but fantasy managers should be able to rely on him for plenty of wins and passable ratios behind one of the league's most intimidating offenses. He enters 2024-25 as the unquestioned No. 1 goalie in Edmonton for the first time in his career, and he may reach the 60-game mark this year after falling one short in 2023-24.

Skinner is slated to be in the road crease for Friday's preseason game against Vancouver, Jamie Umbach of the Oilers' official site reports.

EDGE Analysis

Skinner will make his third exhibition start of the year during Friday's preseason finale. Most recently, he turned aside 21 of 23 shots in a home loss to the Canucks on Monday. The 25-year-old should see another heavy workload in 2024-25 as the Oilers' clear-cut No. 1 goaltender.

EDGE Analysis

Skinner has played in at least 50 regular-season games in each of the previous two campaigns, including last year's 36-win performance. The 25-year-old netminder should be in line for another heavy workload in 2024-25 and could even top the 60-game threshold to be one of the leaders in the league. If he does play that much, Skinner could top the 40-win mark as well given the offensive support around him.
