Skinner turned aside 24 of 26 shots in Thursday's 3-2 overtime win over the Bruins.
EDGE Analysis
Skinner allowed a pair of even-strength goals in the first period, but he shut the door the rest of the way as the Oilers completed the comeback in overtime. It was an encouraging bounce-back performance for the 26-year-old, as he allowed six goals on 28 shots in his last start against the Panthers on Monday. The Alberta native is up to a 12-8-2 record, .893 save percentage and 2.93 GAA through 22 appearances. Skinner and the Oilers have a back-to-back set against the Sharks and Senators on Saturday and Sunday, respectively. Calvin Pickard will likely draw one of those starts.

Skinner will defend the home crease against the Bruins on Thursday, Tony Brar of Oilers TV reports.
EDGE Analysis
Skinner has picked up wins in three of his last four starts, and he'll be between the pipes for a third consecutive game Thursday. Across five appearances this month, the 26-year-old has gone 3-2-0 with a 2.64 GAA and a .906 save percentage. He took the loss against Florida in his last start but will face a more favorable matchup against the Bruins, who are generating just 2.61 goals per game this season, which is the sixth-worst mark in the league.

Skinner made 22 saves in Monday's 6-5 loss to the Panthers.
EDGE Analysis
The back-and-forth affair saw the two teams combine for at least three goals in each period, but Florida dominated the third with three tallies on only 10 shots, as Skinner let a 4-2 lead slip away. It's the first time since Nov. 21 that the netminder has given up more than three goals, and on the season Skinner is 11-8-2 in 21 outings with a 2.98 GAA and an .892 save percentage.

Skinner stopped 38 of 41 shots in Saturday's 6-3 win over the Golden Knights.
EDGE Analysis

Winning stretch aside, Skinner has posted a save percentage above .925 in six games in a row, going 5-1-0 with a 1.68 GAA and a .942 save percentage in that span.

Skinner stopped 21 of 22 shots in Tuesday's win over the Lightning.
EDGE Analysis
There wasn't much Skinner could've done to stop Jake Guentzel's thunderous snap shot from the center of the ice, but other than that, the 26-year-old netminder was impressive once again. He's gone 4-1-0 over his last five appearances, posting an elite 1.41 GAA and a .947 save percentage in that stretch. Skinner has been one of the best goaltenders in fantasy this season, and it hasn't been close.

Skinner will guard the home goal versus the Lightning on Tuesday.
EDGE Analysis
Skinner is set for his fourth start in the last five games. He's allowed just six goals over his last four outings, winning three of them. The Lightning have won four of their last six games, scoring 30 goals in that span, so they could present a challenge even with Skinner displaying good form.

Skinner stopped 29 of 31 shots in Saturday's 4-2 win over the Blues.
EDGE Analysis
Skinner has won four of his last six starts, allowing two or fewer goals in five games in that span. The 26-year-old didn't let St. Louis into the game until the third period, when he allowed two goals but held the lead to the finish. Skinner is now 9-7-2 with a 2.92 GAA and an .892 save percentage over 18 contests. He's taken a similar path to last season when he started slow and improved over time for the rest of the campaign. The Oilers' next game is at home Tuesday versus the Lightning.
