Skinner (personal) was placed on the non-roster list Tuesday, per CapFriendly.

EDGE Analysis

Skinner is away from the Oilers to attend the birth of his child, so this move frees up the roster spot to call up Calvin Pickard. Skinner is expected to be back Saturday versus the Golden Knights, though if he needs more time with his family, he may not be back until Tuesday.

Skinner stopped 21 of 24 shots in Monday's 6-3 loss to the Kings.

EDGE Analysis

Skinner gave up three power-play goals to the Kings before head coach Jay Woodcroft turned to Jack Campbell. The Oilers' offense did enough to get Skinner off the hook, but it was still an ugly outing for the 24-year-old, who has now matched his season high of three straight appearances without a win. Mark Spector of Sportsnet reports Skinner is set to fly back to Edmonton for the birth of his first child, and he's expected to miss the Oilers' games Wednesday in Anaheim and Friday in San Jose at a minimum. Skinner is 12-10-2 with a 2.96 GAA and a .914 save percentage through 26 appearances.

Skinner will be between the pipes Monday in Los Angeles.

EDGE Analysis

Skinner is coming off a 43-save effort in Saturday's 3-2 overtime loss to Colorado. He has a 12-10-2 record this season with a 2.88 GAA and a .915 save percentage in 25 appearances.

EDGE Analysis

Skinner had a 2-0 lead to protect heading into the third period, but the Avalanche's attack was relentless. They scored twice in a span of 5:13 during the third, and Cale Makar completed the comeback with a game-winning goal in overtime. This was still a solid showing for Skinner after he was pulled from his previous start Tuesday versus the Kraken. He's at 12-10-2 with a 2.88 GAA and a .915 save percentage through 25 contests this season. He's 3-3-2 over his last eight games, and he'll have to try to find his form on the road as the Oilers begin a four-game trip against Pacific Division rivals when they visit the Kings on Monday.

EDGE Analysis

Skinner was expected to start Thursday, but Jack Campbell got a rare start in a 4-2 win over the Islanders. Skinner is 12-10-1 with a 2.88 GAA and a .914 save percentage.

Skinner has been getting the bulk of the workload of late, appearing in 12 of the Oilers' previous 15 contests. In those outings, the netminder is 6-5-1 with a 2.85 GAA and .914 save percentage. While Skinner should probably still be considered the No. 1 option between the pipes, Jack Campbell will almost certainly get more than just the odd back-to-back start, including Thursday's clash with New York.

Skinner is expected to be between the pipes at home versus the Islanders on Thursday, per Jason Gregor of OilersNation.com.

EDGE Analysis

Skinner is looking to bounce back from a four-goal defeat to the Kraken on Tuesday, posting his highest GAA of the season (6.86). At this point, it's clear that Skinner ahs supplanted Jack Campbell as the preferred option in goal, though a couple more bad outings like the one he had Tuesday could open the door for Campbell to see more work.

Skinner allowed four goals on 20 shots in Tuesday's 5-2 loss to the Kraken.

EDGE Analysis

Skinner still ended up with the loss, dropping to 12-10-1 with a 2.88 GAA and a .914 save percentage through 24 contests. The Oilers' next game is Thursday versus the Islanders.

Skinner will guard the home goal during Tuesday's game versus the Kraken, NHL.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

Skinner was rock solid in his last start Friday versus the same Seattle team, turning aside 36 of 38 shots en route to a 7-2 win. He'll try to secure a second straight win over the Kraken on Tuesday.

Skinner stopped 36 of 38 shots in Friday's 7-2 win over the Kraken.

EDGE Analysis

Skinner didn't have to do much to earn his third win in his last four starts. The Oilers took a 4-0 lead into the first intermission, and he was able to cruise from there. In that four-game span, Skinner has allowed 10 goals. He improved to 12-9-1 with a 2.78 GAA and a .917 save percentage through 23 outings overall. The busy workload in the first half of a back-to-back likely means Jack Campbell will get the nod at home Saturday versus the Jets.
