Stuart Skinner Backstops Oilers To Series Win
Edmonton Oilers goaltender Stuart Skinner posted a 24-save shutout in Wednesday's series-clinching 1-0 overtime victory against the Vegas Golden Knights. Taking over the crease for Calvin Pickard (undisclosed), Skinner stepped up big time in the matchup, becoming the third Oilers netminder to record back-to-back shutouts in the postseason. He is the fifth goaltender in franchise history to keep the opposition from scoring in a series-clinching game. Skinner's remarkable improvement will make things interesting in the net for Edmonton once Pickard is healthy again. Pickard has not dropped a single game in these playoffs, while Skinner has built up great momentum. He is now 2-3 for the postseason with a 3.05 goals-against average and a .884 save percentage.
