  • 112-95-23 3rd Place
    • Stumbles in second period
      Skinner allowed four goals on 23 shots in Thursday's 4-3 loss to the Panthers in Game 3.

      Advice: Skinner brought some of his trouble on himself, as one of the Panthers' goals in the second period came from his own turnover. They scored three times in a span of 6:19 in the middle frame, and the Oilers' comeback fell short, leaving Skinner with a third straight loss. He's 11-8 with a 2.59 GAA and an .893 save percentage through 19 playoff contests. The Oilers face a herculean task to come back from a 3-0 deficit in the Stanley Cup Finals, but there's been no talk of Calvin Pickard getting a start, so it seems head coach Kris Knoblauch will ride with Skinner to the end.

    • Holds on for Game 3 win
      Bobrovsky stopped 32 of 35 shots in Thursday's 4-3 win over the Oilers in Game 3.

      Advice: Bobrovsky collected his sixth straight win, though this one was a little less comfortable than the previous two games. The Panthers established a 4-1 lead after two periods, but the Oilers scored twice in the third to make it close. Bobrovsky has put the Panthers a game away from winning the Stanley Cup, and he's gone 15-5 with a 2.07 GAA and a .916 save percentage through 20 playoff outings. He'll look to complete a sweep in Game 4 on Saturday. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 11:08 pm
       
    • Starting Game 3
      Skinner will protect the home goal versus the Panthers in Thursday's Game 3, Dan Rosen of NHL.com reports.

      Advice: Skinner has let in five goals on 45 shots over the first two games of the series, but he'll stay between the pipes for the first contest in Edmonton. The fact that he hasn't let in more than three goals in nine of his last 10 contests is a positive, but the Oilers have just one tally over two games in the Stanley Cup Finals, so Skinner will need more support.

    • Starting Game 3
      Bobrovsky will guard the road goal in Game 3 versus the Oilers on Thursday, Steve Goldstein of Bally Sports Florida reports.

      Advice: Bobrovsky has been spectacular through the first two games of the Stanley Cup Finals, picking up back-to-back wins while posting an exceptional 0.50 GAA and .980 save percentage. The Oilers have gone 6-3 at home this postseason, and they'll undoubtedly be desperate to try to avoid falling into a 3-0 series hole, so Bob could face his toughest test yet from Edmonton on Thursday.

    • Inks one-year deal
      Ellis agreed to terms on a one-year, two-way contract with St. Louis on Tuesday.

      Advice: Ellis split his time between the AHL and ECHL this season, logging 16 games for AHL Springfield in which he posted a 7-9-0 record and .924 save percentage while also going 12-5-2 for ECHL Orlando. Selected by the Blues in the third round of the 2019 NHL Draft, the Nova Scotia native shouldn't be expected to make his NHL debut anytime soon but could push for a more prominent role with the AHL Thunderbirds.

    • Returning to Swedish club
      Alnefelt inked a three-year contract with former club HV71 (Sweden) on Tuesday.

      Advice: Alnefelt is expected to be a restricted free agent this offseason, so the Lightning could retain his NHL rights by giving him a qualifying offer. Having said that, the fact that the backstop signed a three-year deal would certainly seem to indicate he won't be returning to North America. With AHL Syracuse this past season, the 23-year-old Swede went 14-8-4 with a 2.76 GAA and an .893 save percentage. Alnefelt made one appearance for the Bolts back in 2021-22, and that seems likely to be his only NHL outing for his professional career. Rotowire.com Tuesday, 6:14 am
       
    • Consecutive losses to open series
      Skinner stopped 25 of 28 shots in Monday's 4-1 loss to Florida in Game 2 of the Stanley Cup Finals.

      Advice: Skinner didn't have much support in front of him in Game 2 -- the Oilers had seven shots on goal through the first two frames. It was only the second time in his last 10 outings that Skinner has allowed more than two goals in a contest. The 25-year-old has an .886 save percentage through two games in this series, though Edmonton hasn't been able to provide the netminder with offensive support (one goal over two games). The last time Skinner lost consecutive contests in the postseason, he rebounded with three straight wins -- the Oilers will need that trend to continue when they head back to Edmonton for Game 3 on Thursday. Skinner is 11-7 with a 2.51 GAA and an .896 save percentage through 18 playoff appearances. Rotowire.com Tuesday, 2:11 am
       
    • Light workload in Game 2
      Bobrovsky made 18 saves on 19 shots in Monday's 4-1 victory over the Oilers in Game 2 of the Stanley Cup Finals.

      Advice: Bobrovsky is now two wins away from helping the Panthers raise the Stanley Cup for the first time in franchise history. The 35-year-old has won five consecutive contests while not allowing more than two goals in a game during that span. Bob has been beaten by Edmonton only once in the series, making a total of 50 saves on 51 shots. The Russian netminder has lost consecutive outings just once this postseason, so it'll be an uphill battle for the Oilers going forward. Bobrovsky is 14-5 with a 2.02 GAA and a .916 save percentage through 19 postseason appearances. Rotowire.com Tuesday, 2:09 am
       
    • Slated to defend cage in Game 2
      Skinner is expected to tend the road twine against the Panthers in Game 2 on Monday.

      Advice: Skinner gave up just two goals in Game 1, his eighth time allowing two or fewer goals in the Oilers' last nine contests, but registered a subpar .882 save percentage after facing a mere 17 shots. Edmonton has allowed more than 25 shots in only two of those nine contests, so fantasy managers should expect Skinner to continue facing a light workload. Rotowire.com Monday, 8:07 am
