  • Yields four goals in loss
    Skinner stopped 17 of 21 shots in Monday's 5-3 loss to the Stars in Game 3. The fifth goal was an empty-netter.

    Advice: For the second game in a row, the Oilers' defense did well at shot suppression, but it wasn't enough. Skinner squandered a 2-0 lead after the first period and has allowed eight goals on 78 shots through the first three games of the Western Conference Finals. Skinner briefly lost his starting job in the second round, but this is the first time he's lost consecutive contests this postseason. Game 4 is Wednesday in Edmonton, and head coach Kris Knoblauch hasn't revealed if it will be Skinner or Calvin Pickard who starts that game. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 9:10 pm
     
  • Settles in after rocky start
    Oettinger stopped 27 of 30 shots in Monday's 5-3 win over the Oilers in Game 3.

    Advice: Oettinger gave up two goals in the first period, but he was able to stabilize to end the first period. The Stars' offense showed up in the second and third while Oettinger remained steady to earn his second win in a row. The 25-year-old could be reasonably expected to have a tougher time on the road, where the Oilers will be able to dictate the line matchups to a greater extent. Oettinger has allowed seven goals over three games in the Western Conference Finals and should continue to handle all of the goaltending duties for the Stars. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 8:47 pm
     
  • Set to start Game 3

    Advice: Oettinger is coming off a 28-save performance in Saturday's 3-1 win over the Oilers in Game 2 of the Western Conference Finals. He has a 9-6 record with a 2.04 GAA and a .922 save percentage across 15 starts this postseason. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 1:08 pm
     
  • Guarding goal in Game 3
    Skinner will patrol the home crease Monday in Game 3 against Dallas, per Tony Brar of Oilers TV.

    Advice: Skinner stopped 22 of 24 shots in Saturday's 3-1 loss to the Stars in Game 2. The defeat snapped his three-game winning streak. Skinner has posted an 8-4 record with a 2.65 GAA and an .890 save percentage over 12 starts this postseason. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 1:01 pm
     
  • Leaky in loss
    Bobrovsky allowed five goals on 23 shots in Sunday's 5-4 overtime loss to the Rangers in Game 3.

    Advice: Bobrovsky didn't give the Panthers a great chance to win despite his teammates controlling the pace of the game. Alexis Lafreniere and Barclay Goodrow each scored twice during regulation, while Alexander Wennberg tallied the winning goal on Bobrovsky 5:35 into overtime. Through 14 playoff contests, Bobrovsky is 9-5 with a 2.31 GAA and a .903 save percentage, with this game being the first time in eight outings he allowed more than two goals. The 35-year-old goalie is at little risk of losing his starting job, so he should be expected between the pipes again for Tuesday's Game 4. Rotowire.com Sunday, 7:02 pm
     
  • Makes 33 saves in win
    Shesterkin stopped 33 of 37 shots in Sunday's 5-4 overtime win over the Panthers in Game 3.

    Advice: The Panthers controlled the pace of play, but the Rangers countered with an opportunistic offense. Shesterkin gave up four goals for just the second time in 13 playoff appearances but came away with a second consecutive win to put the Rangers ahead 2-1 in the Eastern Conference Finals. He's gone 10-3 with a 2.33 GAA and a .925 save percentage this postseason and has done his part to keep a strong Panthers offense mostly under control. It's a virtual guarantee Shesterkin will start again in Tuesday's Game 4. Rotowire.com Sunday, 6:27 pm

  • Decent in loss
    Skinner stopped 22 of 24 shots in Saturday's 3-1 loss to the Stars in Game 2. The third goal was an empty-netter.

    Advice: Skinner gave up a goal to Jamie Benn on a 2-on-1 in the first period, and Mason Marchment tipped in the game-winner in the third. It's tough to find much fault in Skinner's performance in his first loss in four starts, a span in which he's allowed a total of seven goals. The 25-year-old is 8-4 with a 2.65 GAA and an .890 save percentage over 12 playoff outings, though he's been better in recent games. Skinner will likely be between the pipes again for Monday's Game 3 in Edmonton. Rotowire.com Saturday, 9:10 pm
