Edmonton Oilers head coach Kris Knoblauch has shown a strong tendency to stick with his core players through thick and thin, preferring the scalpel over the sledgehammer when he does decide to take corrective action.
In recent times, Skinner has had persistent issues in the first periods of games.
Skinner was beaten three times in the opening frame, in each case the first three goals of the game.
Stu Skinner has been the more volatile of the two by some margin.
Skinner has had several great games, but Pickard has had a higher percentage of his starts land in the red.
Both netminders delivered their worst performance of their entire season to date in their very first start.
Skinner is in the youngest quartile of the 32 NHL goalies to start at least 25 games to this point.
Bowman : “We're going to look at every option for improving. That’s not a big issue with our team. I’ve got to do my job and run out every potential opportunity.” Not the answer a lot of Oilers fans want to hear at this point.
