Oilers' Stuart Skinner: Redemption arc continues in Game 5
Skinner posted a 24-save shutout in Wednesday's 1-0 overtime win over the Golden Knights in Game 5.
Skinner has stepped up in the biggest way possible while Calvin Pickard (undisclosed) has missed the last two games. Skinner shut out the Golden Knights in Games 4 and 5, finishing off the series win to send the Oilers back to the Western Conference Finals. At this point, it's tough to tell which goalie will get the starts once Pickard is healthy, as Skinner's recent play has put him back on track after a horrendous start to the postseason cost him the starting job. The Oilers will have at least a little time to rest up before the next round, as they're the first to advance.

Oilers' Stuart Skinner: Slated to start Wednesday
Skinner is expected to start on the road against Vegas in Game 5 on Wednesday, per Tony Brar of Oilers TV.
Skinner has struggled in the 2025 playoffs with a 3.95 GAA and an .857 save percentage across four outings. However, he's coming off a 23-save shutout, so perhaps he's turned a corner. Calvin Pickard (undisclosed) is expected to remain out Wednesday, so Olivier Rodrigue is set to serve as the understudy. Vegas ranks 10th in goals per game with 2.80 in the postseason.

Oilers' Stuart Skinner: Posts 23-save shutout
Skinner posted a 23-save shutout in the 3-0 Game 4 win over the Golden Knights on Monday.
Skinner was excellent throughout the entire game and posted his first shutout -- and his first win -- of the 2025 playoffs. Skinner has started in the Oilers' last two games due to the absence of Calvin Pickard (undisclosed). Although Skinner has struggled overall in the postseason this year -- he's just 1-3 with a 3.95 GAA and an .857 save percentage even after Monday's shutout victory -- his latest performance might be enough to earn him the start for Game 5 on Wednesday, even if Pickard, who remains day-to-day, ends up being available.

Oilers' Stuart Skinner: Starting Game 4
Skinner will protect the home net against Vegas on Monday in Game 4, Derek Van Diest of NHL.com reports.
Skinner is coming off a 20-save effort in Saturday's 4-3 loss to the Golden Knights in Game 3. He has posted a record of 0-3 with a 5.36 GAA and an .817 save percentage while allowing 15 goals on 82 shots in 168:02 of playing time this postseason. Calvin Pickard (undisclosed) will miss his second straight outing and remains day-to-day.

Oilers' Stuart Skinner: Defeated by last-second goal
Skinner stopped 20 of 24 shots in Saturday's 4-3 loss to the Golden Knights in Game 3.
Skinner was cruising early, but the Golden Knights erased a two-goal deficit before the first intermission. The game appeared headed for overtime, but Skinner was caught out of position when Reilly Smith banked home a shot off Leon Draisaitl's stick for the decisive goal in the final second of regulation. Skinner has lost all three of his playoff outings, giving up 15 goals on 82 shots, but's likely to start as long as Calvin Pickard (undisclosed) is unavailable. Pickard is day-to-day ahead of Game 4 versus the Golden Knights on Monday.

Oilers' Stuart Skinner: In goal for Game 3
Skinner will defend the home crease versus Vegas on Saturday in Game 3, Derek Van Diest of NHL.com reports.
Calvin Pickard (undisclosed) was shaken up in Game 2 on Thursday and was not on the ice for Saturday's morning skate. Skinner started the first two games in Los Angeles during the opening round and allowed 11 goals on 58 shots. Olivier Rodrigue will be Skinner's backup goalie in Saturday's contest. The Golden Knights need a victory to avoid going down 3-0 in the best-of-seven series. Vegas ranks 10th in the league with 3.00 goals per game this postseason.

Oilers' Stuart Skinner: Awful again in Game 2
Skinner stopped 23 of 28 shots in Wednesday's 6-2 loss to the Kings in Game 2.
Skinner made it about halfway through the third period before he was replaced by Calvin Pickard, who allowed the sixth and final goal against. With 11 goals allowed on 58 shots over two playoff contests, Skinner simply isn't getting the job done. The Oilers have yet to name a starting goalie for Friday's Game 3, but it could go either way at this point, as they can't afford to fall into a 3-0 hole in the series with how leaky they've been at the back.

Oilers' Stuart Skinner: Gets starting nod Wednesday
Skinner will patrol the crease on the road in Game 2 against Los Angeles on Wednesday, Jason Gregor of Sports 1440 Edmonton reports.
Skinner was shelled in Game 1 to the tune of six goals on 30 shots (.800 save percentage) in a losing effort to the Kings. Despite the tough performance, the 26-year-old netminder will get the start ahead of Calvin Pickard, who went 22-10-1 in his 36 regular-season outings. If Skinner stumbles again, his hold on the No. 1 job should probably be in doubt.

Oilers' Stuart Skinner: Beaten six times in series opener
Skinner stopped 24 of 30 shots in Monday's 6-5 loss to the Kings in Game 1.
Skinner had been fantastic against the Kings in the regular season, going 1-0-1 with a 1.95 GAA and a .932 save percentage, but that wasn't the case in this series opener. The 26-year-old netminder posted an .896 save percentage in 51 regular-season appearances, representing the lowest mark of his three full years in the league, and there's no question he'll need to bounce back in the upcoming games of the series to avoid putting all the pressure on the offense.

Oilers' Stuart Skinner: Tabbed Game 1 starter
Skinner will start Monday's Game 1 on the road at the Kings, Oilers play-by-play announcer Jack Michaels reports.
Skinner backstopped the Oilers on the way to the Stanley Cup Finals last season, and he is going to be the go-to goalie in this postseason run as well. Skinner missed nine of the team's final 11 games with a head injury, but started two of the final three games to try to get back up to speed. The good news for Edmonton is that the 26-year-old goaltender has been fantastic against the Kings this season, going 1-0-1 with a 1.95 GAA and a .932 save percentage.

Oilers' Stuart Skinner: Playoff-ready after shutout win
Skinner posted an 18-save shutout in Wednesday's 3-0 win over the Sharks.
Skinner has allowed just one goal on 36 shots over two wins since returning from a head injury. The 26-year-old was sharp, and considering Calvin Pickard struggled versus the Kings on Monday, it could be Skinner who gets the first shot at claiming the No. 1 job in goal for the Oilers in the postseason. Skinner ends the regular season at 26-18-4 with a 2.81 GAA and an .896 save percentage, as well as three shutouts, over 51 appearances. Even if Skinner starts Game 1 versus the Kings, he's unlikely to have much leeway should his performance falter early in the series.

Oilers' Stuart Skinner: Expected to start Wednesday
Skinner is set to start on the road against San Jose on Wednesday, Tony Brar of Oilers TV reports.
Skinner stopped 17 of 18 shots en route to a 4-1 win over Winnipeg on Sunday. He has a 25-18-4 record, 2.87 GAA and .894 save percentage over 50 appearances in 2024-25. San Jose ranks 31st in the NHL in goals per game with 2.57.

Oilers' Stuart Skinner: Sharp against depleted Jets
Skinner stopped 17 of 18 shots in Sunday's 4-1 win over the Jets.
The Jets rested two defensemen and had three of their regular forwards out of the lineup as well. All told, Skinner turned in a good performance in his first game action since March 26, though he wasn't facing an opponent at full strength. The 26-year-old netminder is at a 25-18-4 record with a 2.87 GAA and an .894 save percentage over 50 appearances this season. Calvin Pickard will likely face the Kings on Monday, but Skinner could get another tune-up before the playoffs in Wednesday's regular-season finale in San Jose. At this time, it's not clear which goalie will be the Oilers' No. 1 entering the postseason.

Oilers' Stuart Skinner: Returning to crease Sunday
Skinner will start in goal on the road versus the Jets on Sunday, Jason Gregor of Sports 1440 Edmonton reports.
Skinner returned in the backup role Friday versus the Sharks, and he'll get back between the pipes a game later. Calvin Pickard will likely draw the start in Monday's home matchup versus the Kings in the second half of Edmonton's back-to-back. Skinner was out for seven games due to a head injury, and before his absence, he was 4-3-0 with a 3.11 GAA and an .873 save percentage over nine games in March.

Oilers' Stuart Skinner: Ready to return
Skinner (head) will be available for Friday's home game against San Jose, Jason Gregor of Sports 1440 Edmonton.
Goaltender Olivier Rodrigue was returned to AHL Bakersfield because Skinner is ready to return. The 26-year-old Skinner has a 24-18-4 record, 2.91 GAA and .894 save percentage in 49 appearances in 2024-25. Starting with Friday's clash, the Oilers will conclude the regular season with a busy stretch of four games in just six days, so it wouldn't be shocking if Skinner and Calvin Pickard evenly split that workload.

Oilers' Stuart Skinner: Getting close to return
Skinner (head) will miss Wednesday's home clash against St. Louis, per Jason Gregor of Sports 1440 Edmonton.
Skinner was last in net March 26. He has a 24-18-4 record, 2.91 GAA and .894 save percentage in 49 appearances in 2024-25. Skinner has resumed skating and is feeling good, so he might be able to make his return for Friday's home game versus San Jose.

Oilers' Stuart Skinner: Doubtful during road trip
Skinner (head) is not expected to play during the Oilers' upcoming three-game road trip, Oilers play-by-play announcer Jack Michaels reports Wednesday.
Skinner's continued absence means opponents should see a heavy dose of Calvin Pickard ahead of the postseason. In fact, if Pickard is in peak form heading into the playoffs, the 26-year-old Skinner may be hard-pressed to steal back the starting job. Over his last 10 outings, Skinner has underwhelmed with a 4-4-0 record and 3.21 GAA.

Oilers' Stuart Skinner: Set to miss more time
Skinner (head) won't be in the lineup for Saturday's home game against Calgary and could be out for a about of week, Tony Brar of Oilers TV reports.
Skinner will miss his second straight game versus the Flames, and even though he is day-to-day, his return won't be immediate. He has posted a 24-18-4 record with two shutouts, a 2.91 GAA and an .894 save percentage through 49 appearances this season. Calvin Pickard will see most of the starts while Skinner is unavailable, and Olivier Rodrigue will be the backup netminder.
