Stuart Skinner is currently the betting favourite to be the Oilers’ starting goalie next season, but Todd Fuhrman joins SC with Jay Onrait to look at some other options in his latest instalment of Todd’s Odds.
Oilers like the leafs have spent too much of their cap on players who under perform in the playoffs. Until they have a balance of skill through out both teams . Both will never to able to beat Florida
Of Canada’s NHL teams, the: – Oilers (Stu Skinner-Cal Pickard), Jets (Connor Hellebuyck-Eric Comrie) and Leafs (Anthony Stolarz-Joe Woll) have their goalie tandems set for this coming season – Habs (Sam Montembeault-Jakub Dobeš) tentatively have their goalie tandem set, with their main backup (Dobeš) a pending, restricted free agent they would be incredibly stupid to, given how well he performed this past season, not give a qualifying offer to – Canucks (Kevin Lankinen), Flames (Dustin Wolf) and Sens (Linus Ullmark) have their starting goalies set for next season, but not their main backups, with: — this past season Thatcher Demko having struggled to stay healthy and Arturs Šilovs having struggled to stop pucks against teams not named the Blackhawks — Dan Vladar and Anton Forsberg pending unrestricted free agents
I hope it's skinner cause we all got him figured out… Just Throw pux at him in the first period he's bound to let a couple in as soon as he gets down on his pads is like a shooter tutor all the holes are there…. We don't even have to watch film on him we know his traits …have stan bowman as backup
It’s too bad there aren’t any elite goalies that are on the market, no prospects the oilers will keep the goalies the same , skinner can’t win a Stanley cup with his play, he’s not an elite shut down goalie. Very unfortunate situation.

Oiler's are not winning the cup with Skinner in net.
It'll be Skinner
Really after 2 cup losses, no wonder they won't win Skinner stinks

How about after the draft, after July 1st, after the Summer… start asking these questions
Demko

Mannn .. grant fuhr in his prime couldnt stop the panthers with the defence and forwards in front of him that stu had
Carter hart after he’s found not guilty
Oh dang! Jay you're back on Oilers! only 1 day off! when you going to talk about the other 31 teams?
As a panthers fan it’s hilarious watching Edmonton and the media turn on a goalie who’s got the Oilers to the cup two years in row
get rid o useless Stuart Skinnet!
