Skinner stopped 32 of 34 shots in Wednesday's 3-2 overtime win over the Blues.
EDGE Analysis
Skinner got off to a rocky start, allowing two goals in the opening five minutes. He settled down quickly, and the Oilers rallied with two goals from Zach Hyman and a game-winning tally by Connor McDavid. Skinner has won three of his last five outings despite allowing 18 goals in that span. He's up to 27-13-2 with a 2.68 GAA and a .904 save percentage over 43 appearances. The Oilers have a back-to-back up next -- they visit the Kraken on Saturday before hosting the Penguins on Sunday. Skinner and Calvin Pickard are likely to split those contests.

Skinner is slated to start at home against St. Louis on Wednesday, per Tony Brar of Oilers TV.
EDGE Analysis
Skinner has a 26-13-2 record, 2.70 GAA and .903 save percentage in 42 outings this campaign. He saved 38 of 40 shots en route to a 4-2 victory over LA in his last start Monday. St. Louis, which is tied for 24th offensively with 2.88 goals per game, should be a favorable matchup for Skinner.

Skinner stopped 38 of 40 shots in Monday's 4-2 win over the Kings.
EDGE Analysis
Skinner allowed two goals in the first half of the game but ended up kicking aside the remaining 24 shots fired his way. He stopped all five power-play shots by the Kings and finished with a .950 save percentage for the game. It was a strong performance after Skinner lost his past two games and didn't finish above a .900 save percentage in his past six games. While Skinner's recent performance is concerning, it's important to remember his earlier success and potential -- especially with a strong offense in front of him.

Skinner will tend the twine for Monday's home game versus Los Angeles, Ryan Rishaug of TSN reports.
EDGE Analysis
Skinner has just one victory in his last four contests, sporting a 1-2-1 record, 4.71 GAA and .842 save percentage in that span. Even with the poor performances of late, the netminder continues to see the bulk of the workload ahead of journeyman Calvin Pickard.

Skinner allowed five goals on 30 shots in Saturday's 6-3 loss to the Flames. The sixth goal was an empty-netter.
EDGE Analysis
Skinner is 2-3-1 with 26 goals allowed over his last six outings. His performance has dropped and the team in front of him is also struggling to put together full efforts. The 25-year-old goalie is down to 25-13-2 with a 2.72 GAA and a .901 save percentage through 41 appearances this season. The Oilers' next game is Monday versus the Kings.

Skinner will patrol the home crease Saturday versus Calgary, according to Tony Brar of Oilers TV.
EDGE Analysis
Skinner is coming off a 30-save effort in Wednesday's 6-5 overtime loss to Boston. In 40 appearances this campaign, he has posted a 25-12-2 record with two shutouts, a 2.66 GAA and a .903 save percentage. The Flames sit 17th in the league this season with 3.07 goals per contest.

Skinner stopped 30 of 36 shots in Wednesday's 6-5 overtime loss to the Bruins.
EDGE Analysis
Skinner had a rough second period, and while the Oilers recovered from that, they never gave him a lead to protect. Over his last six outings, Skinner has gone 2-3-1 with 23 goals allowed on 178 shots. The 25-year-old is at 25-12-2 with a 2.66 GAA and a .903 save percentage. His strong January is quickly fading into memory, though playing behind an offense as strong as the Oilers will continue to give him a chance to win in most starts.

Skinner is slated to start at home against Boston on Wednesday, per Tom Gazzola of TSN 1260.
EDGE Analysis
The Bruins, who rank 13th offensively with 3.32 goals per game, present a difficult assignment, especially for a struggling goaltender like Skinner. The 25-year-old netminder has posted a 3.80 GAA and an .872 save percentage over his last four starts, though Edmonton's strong forward corps resulted in the Oilers still winning two of those contests. Skinner has a 25-12-1 record, 2.57 GAA and .906 save percentage through 39 outings in 2023-24.

Skinner allowed three goals on 25 Arizona shots in Monday's 6-3 win.
EDGE Analysis
Skinner is 2-2-0 in his last four starts but has hit something of a rough patch. He's allowed at least three goals in each of the last four games. He could certainly get back to the impressive play he displayed during the Oilers' lengthy win streak, but it's hard to trust a goaltender with an .872 save percentage in his last four starts.
