Oilers' Stuart Skinner: Awful again in Game 2
Skinner stopped 23 of 28 shots in Wednesday's 6-2 loss to the Kings in Game 2.
Skinner made it about halfway through the third period before he was replaced by Calvin Pickard, who allowed the sixth and final goal against. With 11 goals allowed on 58 shots over two playoff contests, Skinner simply isn't getting the job done. The Oilers have yet to name a starting goalie for Friday's Game 3, but it could go either way at this point, as they can't afford to fall into a 3-0 hole in the series with how leaky they've been at the back.

Oilers' Stuart Skinner: Gets starting nod Wednesday
Skinner will patrol the crease on the road in Game 2 against Los Angeles on Wednesday, Jason Gregor of Sports 1440 Edmonton reports.
Skinner was shelled in Game 1 to the tune of six goals on 30 shots (.800 save percentage) in a losing effort to the Kings. Despite the tough performance, the 26-year-old netminder will get the start ahead of Calvin Pickard, who went 22-10-1 in his 36 regular-season outings. If Skinner stumbles again, his hold on the No. 1 job should probably be in doubt.

Oilers' Stuart Skinner: Beaten six times in series opener
Skinner stopped 24 of 30 shots in Monday's 6-5 loss to the Kings in Game 1.
Skinner had been fantastic against the Kings in the regular season, going 1-0-1 with a 1.95 GAA and a .932 save percentage, but that wasn't the case in this series opener. The 26-year-old netminder posted an .896 save percentage in 51 regular-season appearances, representing the lowest mark of his three full years in the league, and there's no question he'll need to bounce back in the upcoming games of the series to avoid putting all the pressure on the offense.

Oilers' Stuart Skinner: Tabbed Game 1 starter
Skinner will start Monday's Game 1 on the road at the Kings, Oilers play-by-play announcer Jack Michaels reports.
Skinner backstopped the Oilers on the way to the Stanley Cup Finals last season, and he is going to be the go-to goalie in this postseason run as well. Skinner missed nine of the team's final 11 games with a head injury, but started two of the final three games to try to get back up to speed. The good news for Edmonton is that the 26-year-old goaltender has been fantastic against the Kings this season, going 1-0-1 with a 1.95 GAA and a .932 save percentage.

Oilers' Stuart Skinner: Playoff-ready after shutout win
Skinner posted an 18-save shutout in Wednesday's 3-0 win over the Sharks.
Skinner has allowed just one goal on 36 shots over two wins since returning from a head injury. The 26-year-old was sharp, and considering Calvin Pickard struggled versus the Kings on Monday, it could be Skinner who gets the first shot at claiming the No. 1 job in goal for the Oilers in the postseason. Skinner ends the regular season at 26-18-4 with a 2.81 GAA and an .896 save percentage, as well as three shutouts, over 51 appearances. Even if Skinner starts Game 1 versus the Kings, he's unlikely to have much leeway should his performance falter early in the series.

Oilers' Stuart Skinner: Expected to start Wednesday
Skinner is set to start on the road against San Jose on Wednesday, Tony Brar of Oilers TV reports.
Skinner stopped 17 of 18 shots en route to a 4-1 win over Winnipeg on Sunday. He has a 25-18-4 record, 2.87 GAA and .894 save percentage over 50 appearances in 2024-25. San Jose ranks 31st in the NHL in goals per game with 2.57.

Oilers' Stuart Skinner: Sharp against depleted Jets
Skinner stopped 17 of 18 shots in Sunday's 4-1 win over the Jets.
The Jets rested two defensemen and had three of their regular forwards out of the lineup as well. All told, Skinner turned in a good performance in his first game action since March 26, though he wasn't facing an opponent at full strength. The 26-year-old netminder is at a 25-18-4 record with a 2.87 GAA and an .894 save percentage over 50 appearances this season. Calvin Pickard will likely face the Kings on Monday, but Skinner could get another tune-up before the playoffs in Wednesday's regular-season finale in San Jose. At this time, it's not clear which goalie will be the Oilers' No. 1 entering the postseason.

Oilers' Stuart Skinner: Returning to crease Sunday
Skinner will start in goal on the road versus the Jets on Sunday, Jason Gregor of Sports 1440 Edmonton reports.
Skinner returned in the backup role Friday versus the Sharks, and he'll get back between the pipes a game later. Calvin Pickard will likely draw the start in Monday's home matchup versus the Kings in the second half of Edmonton's back-to-back. Skinner was out for seven games due to a head injury, and before his absence, he was 4-3-0 with a 3.11 GAA and an .873 save percentage over nine games in March.

Oilers' Stuart Skinner: Ready to return
Skinner (head) will be available for Friday's home game against San Jose, Jason Gregor of Sports 1440 Edmonton.
Goaltender Olivier Rodrigue was returned to AHL Bakersfield because Skinner is ready to return. The 26-year-old Skinner has a 24-18-4 record, 2.91 GAA and .894 save percentage in 49 appearances in 2024-25. Starting with Friday's clash, the Oilers will conclude the regular season with a busy stretch of four games in just six days, so it wouldn't be shocking if Skinner and Calvin Pickard evenly split that workload.

Oilers' Stuart Skinner: Getting close to return
Skinner (head) will miss Wednesday's home clash against St. Louis, per Jason Gregor of Sports 1440 Edmonton.
Skinner was last in net March 26. He has a 24-18-4 record, 2.91 GAA and .894 save percentage in 49 appearances in 2024-25. Skinner has resumed skating and is feeling good, so he might be able to make his return for Friday's home game versus San Jose.

Oilers' Stuart Skinner: Doubtful during road trip
Skinner (head) is not expected to play during the Oilers' upcoming three-game road trip, Oilers play-by-play announcer Jack Michaels reports Wednesday.
Skinner's continued absence means opponents should see a heavy dose of Calvin Pickard ahead of the postseason. In fact, if Pickard is in peak form heading into the playoffs, the 26-year-old Skinner may be hard-pressed to steal back the starting job. Over his last 10 outings, Skinner has underwhelmed with a 4-4-0 record and 3.21 GAA.

Oilers' Stuart Skinner: Set to miss more time
Skinner (head) won't be in the lineup for Saturday's home game against Calgary and could be out for a about of week, Tony Brar of Oilers TV reports.
Skinner will miss his second straight game versus the Flames, and even though he is day-to-day, his return won't be immediate. He has posted a 24-18-4 record with two shutouts, a 2.91 GAA and an .894 save percentage through 49 appearances this season. Calvin Pickard will see most of the starts while Skinner is unavailable, and Olivier Rodrigue will be the backup netminder.

Oilers' Stuart Skinner: Set to start Wednesday
Skinner is slated to start at home versus the Stars on Wednesday.
The Oilers will use the same lineup as they did in a 5-4 win over the Kraken on Saturday, which indicates Skinner will be in goal for the first half of a back-to-back. The 26-year-old is 4-2-0 with a 2.90 GAA and an .880 save percentage through eight appearances in March. This will be a tough matchup for him, though he won his most recent game against the Stars on March 8, making 21 saves in a 5-4 win.

Oilers' Stuart Skinner: Not expected to travel
Skinner (head) won't travel with the Oilers for their road game Thursday in Seattle, Tony Brar of Oilers TV reports.
Skinner got clipped in the head by Mikko Rantanen in the third period of Wednesday's 4-3 loss to the Stars. While he was able to avoid a previous injury last Thursday, it doesn't look like Skinner will be so lucky this time around. Look for Calvin Pickard to start Thursday in Seattle, while Collin Delia or Olivier Rodrigue would be candidates for an emergency call-up to fill the backup role during Skinner's absence. Skinner allowed four goals on 21 shots and took the loss in Wednesday's contest.

Oilers' Stuart Skinner: Fends off Kraken
Skinner stopped 27 of 31 shots in Saturday's 5-4 win over the Kraken.
The Oilers were missing Connor McDavid (lower body) and Leon Draisaitl (undisclosed), but Ryan Nugent-Hopkins stepped up with a hat trick to lead the charge. Skinner wasn't great between the pipes, but he had enough support to get the win, his fourth in his last seven outings. He's allowed four or more goals five times in 11 appearances since the 4 Nations Face-Off. The 26-year-old netminder improved to 24-17-4 with a 2.87 GAA and an .895 save percentage across 48 appearances. The Oilers are off until Wednesday, when they begin a back-to-back set with a home game versus the Stars, followed by Thursday's rematch with these Kraken in Seattle. Expect Skinner and Calvin Pickard to split those starts.

Oilers' Stuart Skinner: Avoids injury scare
Skinner (concussion) will be available if called upon against the Kraken at home Saturday, Daniel Nugent-Bowman of The Athletic reports.
Head coach Kris Knoblauch wouldn't confirm whether he was going to use Skinner or Calvin Pickard in goal Saturday, but at least Skinner is an option. Over his last 11 outings, the 26-year-old Skinner is just 3-5-0 with an .872 save percentage while Pickard is 2-0-1 in his last three. Without Connor McDavid (lower body) or Leon Draisaitl (undisclosed) versus Seattle, the Oilers will need to rely heavily on their backstop Saturday.

Oilers' Stuart Skinner: Tending twine Saturday
Skinner will patrol the home crease against Seattle on Saturday, according to Tony Brar of Oilers TV.
Skinner stopped 13 of 16 shots in Thursday's 4-3 overtime loss to Winnipeg before leaving the game due to a concussion spotter. However, he won't miss any additional action. Skinner has a 23-17-4 record with two shutouts, a 2.85 GAA and an .896 save percentage through 47 appearances this season. Seattle is tied for 14th in the league with 2.97 goals per game in 2024-25.

Oilers' Stuart Skinner: Departs game in third period
Skinner was hurt in a third-period collision versus the Jets on Thursday, Oilers play-by-play announcer Jack Michaels reports. Head coach Kris Knoblauch added that Skinner was pulled by the concussion spotter, Mark Spector of Sportsnet reports.
Skinner's injury occurred late in the contest, so it's not yet known if he's officially suffered a concussion. He allowed three goals on 16 shots prior the injury, though he didn't end up taking a result as the Jets won the game in overtime. Skinner joins Leon Draisaitl (undisclosed) and Connor McDavid (lower body) as players in doubt to play Saturday versus the Kraken. Should Skinner miss any length of time, Calvin Pickard will operate as the No. 1 netminder.
