Skinner turned aside 32 shots in Thursday's 4-3 loss to the Panthers.
EDGE Analysis
The two teams traded goals through the first two periods, but Skinner allowed two goals in less than three minutes midway through the third to decide things. The 26-year-old netminder has flopped badly since play resumed following the 4 Nations Face-Off, losing all three of his starts and coughing up 13 goals on 103 shots. Skinner remains stuck on 20 wins, and the slump has sent his save percentage on the season tumbling down to .898.

Skinner will be between the road pipes against Florida on Thursday, Tony Brar of Oilers TV reports.
EDGE Analysis
Skinner has struggled over his last three starts, going 0-2-0 with a 5.21 GAA and .848 save percentage during that time. He could have trouble righting the ship Thursday, as the Panthers rank sixth in the NHL with 3.27 goals per game.

Skinner made 33 saves in a 4-1 loss to the Lightning on Tuesday.
EDGE Analysis
Skinner has scuffled since the mid-point of January, going 2-5-1 in nine starts and registering a .886 save percentage in that span. His .898 save percentage overall is 35th among goalies with at least 15 starts this season, and his 2.84 GAA is 34th. Skinner remains the Oilers starter, and he has delivered 20 wins this season (20-14-4). His game doesn't instil confidence, but Skinner has a chance to be OK enough to get the Oilers through a few playoff rounds as long as his team can put up goals.

Skinner will patrol the road crease Tuesday against the Lightning, per Tony Brar of Oilers TV.
EDGE Analysis
Skinner will look to rebound Tuesday after allowing five goals in a loss to Philadelphia in his first appearance following the 4 Nations Face-Off break. The 26-year-old will have his hands full against a Tampa Bay squad that is tied for second in the NHL with 3.57 goals per game. Skinner is 1-2-0 with a 3.77 GAA and a woeful .836 save percentage over three career appearances against the Lightning.

Skinner stopped 26 of 31 shots in Saturday's 6-3 loss to Philadelphia. The sixth goal was an empty-netter.
EDGE Analysis
The Flyers' second line of Owen Tippett, Matvei Michkov and Sean Couturier were Skinner's kryptonite Saturday, as the trio collected eight points (four goals, four assists) in the game. Skinner struggled through a 2-3-1 stretch in seven appearances before the break for the 4 Nations Face-Off, and Saturday's performance won't inspire much confidence. Still, he should benefit once his team gets their collective groove back.

Skinner is expected to start on the road in Philadelphia on Saturday, Tony Brar of Oilers TV reports Friday.
EDGE Analysis
Skinner has a 20-12-4 record, 2.74 GAA and .900 save percentage in 37 appearances in 2024-25. He was going through a rough patch before the 4 Nations break, allowing nine goals on 62 shots (.855 save percentage) across his past three outings. The Flyers rank 24th in goals per game with 2.79.

Skinner gave up three goals on 12 shots in Friday's 5-4 loss to the Avalanche.
EDGE Analysis
The Oilers were down 3-2 after one period, and head coach Kris Knoblauch decided to replace Skinner with Calvin Pickard for the remainder of the game. The Oilers were able to get Skinner off the hook but didn't pull at any point and ended up with a close loss. The 26-year-old remains at 20-12-4 with a 2.74 GAA and a .900 save percentage over 37 appearances this season. When the season resumes, the Oilers will embark on a road trip that begins with a back-to-back -- they visit the Flyers on Feb. 22 and the Capitals on Feb. 23, so Skinner and Pickard are likely to split the first two games after the break.

Skinner stopped 20 shots on 22 total attempts in Tuesday's 3-2 overtime win against the Blues.
EDGE Analysis
Despite a four-minute stretch in the third period where he allowed two goals, Skinner shut down St. Louis for the first two periods and overtime. The 26-year-old netminder now holds a 20-12-4 record with a .902 save percentage and a 2.68 GAA. Edmonton is hitting its stride as a team, winning 12 of their last 17 games. However, Tuesday's victory was only Skinner's third win in his previous seven outings. Due to his inconsistencies, he is a mid-level starter in fantasy hockey with high upside if Edmonton's momentum continues.
