  • Oilers' Stuart Skinner: Drops second straight game

    Skinner made 20 of 23 saves in Sunday's 4-2 loss to the Red Wings. The fourth goal was an empty-netter.

    Skinner's struggles from his last appearance continued, allowing three goals in the second period before the rookie Emmitt Finnie tied the bow on his breakout performance with an empty-net tally. With the loss, Skinner now has a 1-2-1 record with a 2.23 GAA and a .909 save percentage in four appearances this season. The 26-year-old goalie's performances across his three starts during Edmonton's four-game road trip display some of the inconsistencies he's faced in his career. After a 30-save shutout win over the Rangers, he surrendered three goals each to the Islanders and Red Wings. For the time being, Skinner might continue to be a coin-flip in net for the Oilers, making him a frustrating option in fantasy, but one with decent value playing for the reigning Stanley Cup runners-up. His next chance to bounce back is Tuesday against the Senators, should he get the start over Calvin Pickard.

  • Oilers' Stuart Skinner: Gets starting nod

    Skinner will start Sunday's game against the Red Wings, Paige Martin of the Oilers' official site reports.

    Skinner will face a red-hot Red Wings team that's riding a four-game winning streak. The 26-year-old has allowed three goals in two of his three starts -- both losses -- and also has a shutout on the season. All told, the goaltender has a 1.97 GAA and .921 save percentage, a strong start to the campaign.

  • Oilers' Stuart Skinner: Tagged with loss Thursday

    Skinner stopped 21 of 24 shots in Thursday's 4-2 loss to the Islanders. The fourth goal was an empty-netter with nine seconds left in the game.

    Skinner was beaten at least once in each period en route to suffering his first defeat in regulation time of the campaign. The 26-year-old has had two subpar showings and one outstanding one, as he shut out the Rangers on Tuesday before this loss to the Islanders. Skinner has gone 1-1-1 with a 1.97 GAA and a .921 save percentage. The Oilers will continue their road trip against the Devils on Saturday.

  • Oilers' Stuart Skinner: Starting again Thursday

    Skinner will guard the road goal versus the Islanders on Thursday, Stefen Rosner of NHL.com reports.

    Skinner shut out the Rangers on Tuesday, so it's not a surprise he'll be rewarded with a second straight start. Calvin Pickard is also in the mix, but if Skinner gets on a good run of play, he'll likely continue to handle a starting role. The Islanders have struggled a bit early on, scoring just seven goals over their first three games.

  • Oilers' Stuart Skinner: Blanks Blueshirts on Broadway

    Skinner turned aside all 30 shots he faced in Tuesday's 2-0 win over the Rangers.

    The 26-year-old netminder was especially busy in the third period, kicking out 13 shots. New York tried desperately to find an equalizer before Adam Henrique put the game out of reach with an empty-netter. It was an impressive showing from Skinner after he got stuck with an OT loss in the Oilers' season opener last Wednesday. He's allowed three goals on 52 shots to begin the campaign. Skinner needs to improve his consistency to lock down the top spot in the Edmonton crease.

  • Oilers' Stuart Skinner: Starting in Manhattan

    Skinner will be between the road pipes Tuesday versus the Rangers, according to Oilers play-by-play announcer Jack Michaels.

    Skinner will look to rebound Tuesday after giving up three goals on 22 shots (.864 save percentage) in the season-opening loss against Calgary on Wednesday. The Rangers are 2-2-0 to start the year, and while they've scored 10 goals across a pair of games on the road, they have been shut out twice at home by the Penguins and Capitals. Skinner has fared well against the Rangers throughout his career, owning a 3-1-0 record, 2.25 GAA and .926 save percentage.

  • Oilers' Stuart Skinner: Squanders lead in season opener

    Skinner stopped 19 of 22 shots in Wednesday's 4-3 shootout loss to the Flames.

    A couple of bad bounces led to the Flames' first two goals, but it was Skinner's own puck-handling mishap early in the third that led to the tying tally. He then stopped six of eight shootout attempts, but Dustin Wolf was one save better, leaving Skinner on the hook for a frustrating loss to open the season. The 26-year-old can't afford many blunders this year, as the spotlight has already been on him for his playoff struggles despite the team's overall success. Should Skinner go through an extended slump, Calvin Pickard could earn an even split of time in the crease, or the Oilers could opt to make a move to upgrade their goaltending altogether. The Oilers are back in action at home versus the Canucks on Saturday.

  • Oilers' Stuart Skinner: In goal Wednesday

    Skinner will get the starting nod at home versus the Flames on Wednesday, Tony Brar of Oilers TV reports.

    Skinner has reached the 50-game mark in each of his previous three seasons and figures to do so again in 2025-26. Despite the heavy workload, the 26-year-old backstop has just one 30-win campaign, though with the team around him, he should be in the mix to reach that threshold again this year.

  • Oilers' Stuart Skinner: Returns to practice Sunday

    Skinner (flu) worked as the Oilers' top netminder during Sunday's practice session, Tony Brar of Oilers TV reports.

    Skinner missed Friday's preseason game against the Canucks, but his role during Sunday's practice suggests that he's moved past his illness ahead of the regular season. It seems likely that Skinner will be in net for Wednesday's Opening Night matchup against Calgary.

  • Oilers' Stuart Skinner: Questionable Friday

    Skinner is battling the flu bug and may not be able to play against Vancouver in preseason action Friday, Jason Gregor of Sports 1440 Edmonton reports.

    Skinner was scheduled to start, but that may be in doubt. If he is unable to go, Calvin Pickard is in line for the start, with the Oilers likely recalling a goaltender from the minors. Skinner was shaky last season, going 26-18-4 with a 2.81 GAA and an .896 save percentage over 51 regular-season appearances.

  • Oilers' Stuart Skinner: Unavailable Friday

    Skinner (flu) will miss Friday's preseason game against Vancouver, per the NHL media site.

    Skinner was initially scheduled to start against the Canucks, but Calvin Pickard will play between the pipes instead. The 26-year-old Skinner should still be in net for Edmonton's regular-season opener against Calgary on Wednesday, provided he's healthy in time for that clash.

  • Oilers' Stuart Skinner: Starting preseason finale

    Skinner will tend the twine on the road versus Vancouver on Friday, Tony Brar of Oilers TV reports.

    Skinner will get one final tune-up before Opening Night versus the Flames on Oct. 8. The 26-year-old backstop has featured in at least 50 games in each of the last three seasons but has only reached the 30-win mark once during that stretch. While his GAA last season remained below three (2.81), it marked a career worst for the Edmonton native.

  • Oilers' Stuart Skinner: Scheduled to start Sunday

    Skinner is expected to start Sunday's exhibition game versus the Canucks.

    The plan is for Skinner to play all three periods in Sunday's tune-up game against a divisional foe. The 26-year-old conceded three goals on 18 shots in Wednesday's 4-1 loss to the Kraken. Skinner posted a 26-18-4 record with three shutouts, an .896 save percentage and a 2.81 GAA over 51 regular-season outings in 2024-25.

  • Oilers' Stuart Skinner: Gets nod Wednesday

    Skinner is expected to get the home start for Wednesday's preseason game against Seattle.

    Samuel Jonsson will serve as Skinner's understudy, and the duo might end up splitting the workload given that this is an early preseason game. Skinner is expected to start the campaign as Edmonton's clear No. 1 goaltender and will likely get more than 50 regular-season appearances as long as he stays healthy.

  • Oilers' Stuart Skinner: Struggles continue in Cup loss

    Skinner allowed three goals on 23 shots in a 5-1 loss to the Panthers in Game 6 on Tuesday.

    Two goals went into an empty net when the Oilers were trying to push for their first goal late in the third frame. Skinner has struggled to gain the faith of fans with a few too many beachball goals, and Tuesday was no different, especially with the first snipe. He finished the postseason with seven wins, a 2.99 GAA and an .889 save percentage in 15 starts.
