The Edmonton Oilers are committing to Stuart Skinner as their starting goalie.
The Edmonton Oilers came just one game shy of winning their sixth Stanley Cup in franchise history and ending a 30-year drought of championships from a Canadian team. With that in mind, the Oilers bolstered their roster this offseason, making themselves a fiercer team.
After a successful regular season, putting up a 36-16-5 record, Skinner was shaky in the playoffs. While Skinner appeared in 23 of the 25 games, there was a brief moment when it looked like he lost his starting role to Calvin Pickard. Despite being an All-Star selection during the 2022-23 season, Skinner was never solidified as the Oilers’ go-to netminder. Heading into the 2023-24 season, Jack Campbell was the Oilers’ starter. After a 1-4 start, Campbell finished the season with the Bakersfield Condors of the American Hockey League.
