He's improved to 11-7-2 for the season and is sporting a 2.82 goals-against average with a .897 save percentage and one shutout.

Edmonton Oilers goaltender Stuart Skinner posted a 27-save shutout on Friday evening against the Pittsburgh Penguins. This was a great bounce back performance for not only Skinner, but the Oilers as well. Through his first five starts of the season, the 25-year-old allowed at least three goals in each game with a high of five in the season opener. Fantasy managers should expect Skinner to have plenty of opportunities to pick up a win given how potent the Edmonton offense can be. Last season, Skinner set a career-high with 36 wins and a 2.62 GAA and .905 SV%. Skinner should be expected to return to the starting crease on Sunday when the Oilers travel to Detroit.

Skinner was pulled for Calvin Pickard after two periods and saw a bit more action near the end of the third. The Oilers No. 1 was beaten three times in the first period, and Vancouver scored twice against him on the power play. With three games played in the series and the Canucks now 2-1 up, Skinner boasts an abysmal 0.793 save percentage. The Oilers face a big goaltending decision ahead of Game 4.

Skinner turned aside all 33 shots he faced and the Oilers won despite being outshot 33-13 in the contest. After allowing nine goals through the first two games of the series, the 25-year-old has yielded just a single tally over the last two contests, putting up a .987 save percentage in that time. He posted a 2.62 goals-against average and a .905 save percentage across 57 starts and 59 appearances during the regular season.
Edmonton Oilers netminder Stuart Skinner will not be between the pipes of Tuesday's contest against the visiting Montreal Canadiens. This is not a back-to-back scenario, meaning this is strictly to give Skinner some rest while Calvin Pickard gets the start. The 25-year-old has indeed been leaned on heavily this season with his 49 games played sitting in a five-way tie for the second-most outings by a netminder this season. Skinner has posted a 2.57 goals-against average and a .908 save percentage on the season, posting a 30-13-4 record in the process. His 5.34 goals saved above average sits 24th of 69 qualified netminders, according to Hockey Reference. Pickard sports a 2.27 GAA and .919 Sv% across 14 games (13 starts) for the Oilers this season and is a strong streaming option against a Canadiens team that ranks 27th with 2.72 goals per game on the season.
Edmonton Oilers goaltender Stuart Skinner will give way to backup Calvin Pickard for Thursday's road game against the Detroit Red Wings. This is simply a rest for the well-used netminder as there is no back-to-back situation at play for the club. Skinner has played nearly every night for the Oilers after Jack Campbell was demoted to the minors early in the season. The 25-year-old sits with a 2.69 goals-against average and a .901 save percentage through 28 outings (27 starts) on the season but has been fantastic of late. Skinner has won 13 of his last 15 decisions and has yielded two goals or fewer 10 times in that span, including in each of his last five while winning six straight games. He has become a high-end fantasy option on a surging Oilers team as a result.

With the result, Skinner improved his record to 5-7-1, and four of the victories have come across his last six starts. The 25-year-old has performed better as of late, but he still boasts a poor 3.37 goals-against average and has a lowly .875 save percentage. It's been a rough year for Skinner, but he should have a good chance of making it back-to-back wins for himself on Sunday, with the Ducks slumping and traveling to Edmonton with a five-game losing streak.

Skinner collected his third consecutive victory, bringing his season totals to a record of 4-5-1 to go along with a 3.23 goals against average and .880 save percentage through 11 appearances. Skinner is a risky option across standard fantasy formats with the Oilers schedule consisting of road games against the Lightning, Panthers and Hurricanes in the upcoming week.

Skinner's personal save percentage is even lower at .750. He has saved only 24 of 32 shots, allowing 5.33 goals. The 24-year-old will hope to bounce back on Saturday, but it's a tricky matchup against a team that has won seven of the last 10 head-to-head clashes.

"I know for my rookie year it seems everything went pretty good and pretty smoothly, but I learned a lot of lessons," Skinner told NHL.com. "I've got much, much better to bring next year, and hopefully, I'm going to do that my whole career. I know it was a good year, but I know I've got a lot better." Skinner's eagerness to improve likely stems from his playoff struggles. The 24-year-old saw his save percentage dip to .883 during the postseason and he couldn't save the Oilers from a second-round exit. Skinner will continue to battle with Jack Campbell for playing time in 2023-24.
