This Is A MAJOR PROBLEM For The Edmonton Oilers + Stuart Skinner
The Edmonton Oilers got a performance that was good enough to win on most nights from Stuart Skinner last night, but they just couldn’t get the bounce to actually do it. #EdmontonOilers #Oilers #NHL #Vegas #StanleyCupPlayoffs
Pickard has always been the better goalie imo I just don't know how they let Skinner back in last year after the Canucks series. I would have at least rode Pickard to the end.
lol, love watching content creators and biased fans twist themselves in pretzels trying to explain away why the team lets in awful goals and lose when Stu starts but goes on winning streaks when Picks start 😂
At some point people will get honest and just acknowledge Stu isn’t consistent enough to even be considered a number 1 NHL goalie let alone one that would be roster-able on any other playoff team.
I’ve played hockey for 20 years and honestly when your goalie starts letting in shots he should have stopped it runs everyone down a couple gears. Skinner is just not the guy.
Skinner is terrible, why was he soooooooo far out? He was at least1m out of the blue. I agree tram defense sucks but the coach needs to be harder on them. Doesn't change that skinner sicks.
Imagine Betman telling Katz that hes spending alot of money on a goalie like Skinner,then Katz telling the coach to play him. I can never understand why a coach would change from a winning goalie and changing the mojo of a team
you said it, 'there is something' and that something is Skinner has bad karma WITH the Oilers, he is a 'bad luck' for the Oilers, that simple. It is not about skills, his and Pickards are not vastly apart, but no matter what Stu is trying, even with me seeing him play all right yesterday, short of last 10 seconds, and yet, the last 10 seconds confirmed for me yet again, 'bad karma Stu'.
I knew the oilers were gonna lose soon as I saw Skinner in the net. I could not believe that Edmonton didn't trade a second round pick for Valdar from Calgary. He's a free agent this summer and they could have got him cheap. He's way better than skinner.
The reason pickard gets more respect is that he makes the save when they need a save which skinner lets in that shot every time.He’s lost his last 4 playoffs starts

That losing goal was on Draisiatl!

Stu was not great but how does Karlsson win a 1 vs. 4 puck battle?
Oilers don't get the bounces, that's a joke right?
Cannot win without a goalie.
Skinner is useless ,and I'm being generous
Idk. What i see is that the oilers have no faith whenever skinner is in net.
Like the last goal, what was that
The gm should’ve fixed this at the deadline.
That loss is 100% on skinner

Oilers are fucked with this loser in net
Leon had an epic bad night. Skinner needs less hometown fishbowl pressure.

Skinner needs to be traded ASAP
Watch Skinner lose the series for them😂
Draisaitl was brutal. Why was he out there so long?
Skinner spends the entire game with his legs open, and you blame puck luck?
Play Rodrigues
LET'S GO OILERS !!!!
Hopefully Pickard will be good to go for game 4
