Skinner stopped 18 of 22 shots in Tuesday's 7-4 win over the Golden Knights.
EDGE Analysis
Skinner still turned in an ugly performance, but the Oilers' offense helped him earn his fifth win in his last six outings. In that span, he's given up at least three goals in all but one contest. The 24-year-old improved to 24-14-5 with a 2.95 GAA and a .908 save percentage through 45 appearances this season. Despite the shaky play, he'll likely continue to get starts over Jack Campbell.

Skinner made 33 saves in a 6-4 win over the Kraken on Saturday.
EDGE Analysis
Skinner has won three straight and seven of his last eight starts, all in March (7-1-0). The Oilers are riding the hot hand and that's him -- the higher-paid Jack Campbell has just one start in March and hasn't won since Feb. 11 (0-1-4). Keep trotting Skinner out. Edmonton is third in the Pacific division, three points ahead of Seattle, and they won't take their foot off the proverbial gas anytime soon.
