    • Steady in Game 1 win
      Skinner stopped 31 of 33 shots in Thursday's 3-2 double-overtime win over the Stars in Game 1 of the Western Conference Finals.

      Advice: Skinner didn't face more than 24 shots in any of his five appearances in the second round versus the Canucks, but the Stars predictably were more active. The 25-year-old was up to the challenge, earning his third straight win. He's allowed just five goals in that span. Skinner's back in the No. 1 job for the Oilers, so he should be expected to start Game 2 on Saturday. Rotowire.com Thursday, 9:55 pm
       
    • Between pipes for Game 1
      Skinner will tend the twine on the road in Game 1 of the Western Conference Finals against the Stars on Thursday, Jason Gregor of Sports 1440 Edmonton reports.

      Advice: Skinner has faced less than 20 shots in each of his last four appearances, posting a 3-1 record to go with a 2.66 GAA and .848 save percentage over that stretch. Despite being benched for Games 4 and 5 of the Oilers' second-round series versus Vancouver, the 25-year-old backstop was able to reclaim the starting role from Calvin Pickard for the final two games of the best-of-seven series. Skinner will likely remain the preferred choice in net for Edmonton during the Western Conference Finals. Rotowire.com Wednesday, 9:16 am
