The defense in front of him has been atrocious. Talk about throwing him under the bus. Bouchard and nurse think that mcdavid and Leon need help playing up front
Skinner is carrying the kings fr
Bouchard with a huge game for LA. check that dudes bet 365
I’m a kings fan and i have a tradition of bringing out all my kings hockey cards for the games. I’ve added skinners card to the collection. Love the guy
Uhhh cmon let him play just give him one more chance coach
Done for the series
It's easy to point to the goalie for Edm being down 2-0. But look at how many times his D have left 2 & 3 Kings unchecked in the lane. It's ridiculous how bad their D is. And the forwards aren't backchecking to help out.
D is garbage yes but even the stats that account for that show that Skinner is by far the worst starter on a playoff team and one of the worst in the entire league overall
Lol, that's INSANE the NHL's official YouTube posted this.
Skinner is cooked
You can see in his eyes that he is trying not to cry!
Saw him in the dressing room after the first period so sad! Just staring at the floor!
Sweep Sweep Sweep!!!
Ssssssssskkkkkkkkkkkkiiiiiiiiiiiiiiinnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnneeeeeeeeeeeerrrrrrrrrrrrrrr 😂
START Picard PERIOD
It was D problems not him this guy played for my home town in the ECHL (Wichita Thunder) and ive followed him ever since he really is great
I was there and LA scores within a minute of the goalie change.
I've been saying the Oilers run last year was fraudulent. These playoffs are just gonna prove it. Edmonton is at best a 2nd round exit. Kings in 6
As a king fan, i actually feel bad for McDavid, draisaitl, all of them, if they literally only need a goalie and they can make a dynasty equal to Gretzky, but they STILL have skinner as their primary
Lmao
We want skinner 😂😂😂😂😂
Wait LA kings when you go to Edmonton Roger's arena, we will also bully your goalie and team!
Wasn’t on Skinner last night. Yea he wasn’t out of this world but the defense was abysmal. I’ve never seen such careless defensive hockey from a supposed cup favorite
nurse is the playoff gift that keeps on giving…. to every oiler's opponent LOL
Edmonton pleaaaase get rid of skinner and get a new goalie from other teams or AHL
To be fair to Skinner the whole Edmonton D is pretty bad
Skinner should be done
oiler fan here……WE DONT WANT SKINNER
Skinner is terrible. .889 in 37 career playoff games. Has given up 11 goals in the first two games. How are McDavid and Draisaitl going to win a Cup when they dont have an NHL goalie?
What is the Oilers brass thinking of? They didn't go after a goalie and let important players walk.
Everyone got so butthurt when I said Edmonton would never win a cup with a middle school goaltender 😂🤷♂️
McRegularseason choking again
Imagine making it to the NHL playoffs as a professional, only to have people scapegoat you because they can't tell how much your teammates suck.
We want skinner is crazy
It’s nice to feel appreciated
Lol
WE WANT SKINNER!!!
And for the habs, The habs fans should yell: we want Xhekaj
As a Preds fan watching Saros play behind the worst defense in the NHL this season, I learned contrary to the Bridgeatone Arena crowd chants, it's not all the goalies' fault.
Skinner got gaped like dreamybull last night
I feel for the guy he let in some easy ones but the last couple goals the defense was literally giving the kings the puck in their offensive zone for wide open uncontested fast breaks
Stan Bowman is a moron.
After he made a glove he did the slow catch then was laughing after like it’s playoffs and that’s why they pulled him because I saw the camera was right there either the manager saw that and told Chris knoblock then pulled or his teammates saw and told the coach either way skinner go down to the minors
I was one of thousands chanting 😅
actually what it started as was “we want 7” as we had 6 goals by then. then they flashed his mustachioed face on the jumbotron & it became”we want Skinner”
