Skinner stopped 11 of 14 shots in Tuesday's 3-2 loss to the Capitals.

EDGE Analysis

Skinner allowed three goals for the third straight game, but this was the lowest number of shots he's faced in a start where he wasn't pulled this season. The Oilers needed him to make a save or two and he wasn't up to the task, losing for the third time in five outings. He's now 18-11-3 with a 2.71 GAA and an .899 save percentage through 32 starts. He's yet to start more than three games in a row all year, so it wouldn't be surprising for Calvin Pickard to get the nod against the Canucks on Thursday, especially since Skinner lost to them by a 3-2 score Saturday.

Skinner will protect the home goal against the Capitals on Tuesday, Bailey Johnson of The Washington Post reports.

EDGE Analysis

Skinner is set to start a third straight game for the first time since Dec. 14-19. He's allowed six goals while going 1-1-0 over his last two outings. He'll have a particularly tough task Tuesday, as the Capitals are in first place in the NHL while the Oilers will be without captain Connor McDavid (suspension).

Skinner stopped 24 of 27 shots in Saturday's 3-2 loss to the Canucks.

EDGE Analysis

Skinner took just his second loss over six outings in January, though he's allowed at least three goals in three of those games. The 26-year-old gave up all of the goals in the first period, and the Oilers' offense struggled to do much outside of a pair of Leon Draisaitl tallies in the middle frame. Skinner is down to 18-10-3 with a 2.70 GAA and a .901 save percentage over 31 appearances. The Oilers return home to face the Capitals on Tuesday.

Skinner will defend the road crease against Vancouver on Saturday, according to Tony Brar of Oilers TV.

EDGE Analysis

Skinner is 5-1-0 in his last six starts, giving up 11 goals on 163 shots (.933 save percentage). He allowed five in his lone loss during that stretch. Skinner is 18-9-3 with two shutouts, a 2.69 GAA and a .902 save percentage in 30 games this season. The Canucks sit 22nd in the league with 2.84 goals per game in 2024-25.

Skinner stopped 22 of 25 shots in Thursday's 4-3 win over the Avalanche.

EDGE Analysis

Skinner gave up three goals in the first 11:48 of the game, but he was perfect after that as the Oilers rallied for a comeback win. This was Skinner's fifth win in his last six outings and just the second time in that span he's given up at least three goals. The 26-year-old has an 18-9-3 record with a 2.69 GAA and a .902 save percentage through 30 starts this season. The Oilers have alternated goalies over their last five games, though it's possible a back-to-back forced their hand. Skinner had been starting roughly two of every three games in December, so he appears to remain ahead of Calvin Pickard for now. The Oilers visit the Canucks on Saturday.

Skinner is expected to start on the road against the Avalanche on Thursday, per Tony Brar of Oilers TV.

EDGE Analysis

A brilliant goaltending duel was settled by a Connor McDavid tally late in the second period, giving Skinner his second shutout of the season -- and second in his last three starts. The 26-year-old netminder has just one regulation loss in his last eight outings, going 6-1-1 with a stellar 1.89 GAA and .930 save percentage.

Skinner will patrol the home crease versus the Kings on Monday, per Jason Gregor of Sports 1440 Edmonton.

EDGE Analysis

Skinner was coming off three straight outstanding performances, but he didn't look good Thursday and saw the end of his three-game winning run. This was Skinner's first loss in regulation since Dec. 16, when he allowed six goals in a 6-5 loss to the Panthers. Between losses, the 26-year-old had posted a 5-0-1 record with a 1.67 GAA and a .937 save percentage across six appearances.

EDGE Analysis

Skinner has been outstanding of late, going 10-2-1 with a 2.01 GAA and a .928 save percentage in his last 13 starts. Skinner got off to another slow start to begin the year, reminiscent of last season, but has come back strong once again, as he is 16-8-3 with a 2.68 GAA and a .902 save percentage through 27 starts. The Penguins are averaging 3.02 goals per game in 2024-25, which is tied for 15th in the NHL.
