Au cours de ses deux premiers matchs d’après-saison, le gardien des Oilers Stuart Skinner affiche une moyenne de 4,42 et un pourcentage d’arrêts de ,857. Dans l’ensemble de sa carrière en séries éliminatoires, Skinner a une fiche de 6-7 avec une moyenne de 3,81 et un pourcentage d’arrêts de ,879. Est-ce une source d’inquiétude pour Edmonton? Comment Skinner peut-il aller mieux ? Bruce Boudreau, analyste de TSN Hockey, partage ses réflexions.

As a former goaltender, Skinner's mind is not focused on the game. He's on his heels in this one. He's probably trying to hard to do it mentally. The mind is too slow for this sport. You have to drop the mind and rely on something supernatural. Just ask Connor McJesus about that one.
Simple ! ( In ) my humble pinion – Skin is not a Big time Netminder – Needs more time
How can u not see the puck?Guessing a lot where the puck is heading.
If he trims & adjust his mustache he'll be good to go.
Bruce is the last guy to answer this question but of course he will
Can Bruce please coach the Kings. If he used this logic then the Kings would start Rittich. Rittich is so much better than Talbot.
Nice grammar. Very english.
TELL HIM TO TRACK. THE. PUCK.
Weakest link for the oilers
Talbot allows 7-
We talk about skinner!……
How would would
Its not skinner, its the team infront of him. How tf do ppl talk about playoff hockey without mentioning team defense as that is the #1 thing all cup teams have in common is beast team defense. Blows my mind but then i remember the old boys club exists. Fire these bums n stop rehiring them ffs, they're well past thier prime even in the commentators booth.
The hawks and penguins won multiple cups with different net minders ffs. Its not rocket science but best goalies in the league generally always = best team defense in the league.
nice title aha
BRUCE!
Skinner would be an elite ringette goalie…nothing more…he stinks.
I want to hear Bruce’s opinion on Cam Talbot’s 11 goals allowed in 2 games. Criticize both teams for once. The Canadian media has this bad habit of grilling Canadian teams at the first sniff of a struggle. No wonder players run off to sign for American teams 🙄
Bruce Boudreau and Buffy make us all collectively stupider about hockey after listening to this pap.
Just wait till KING Fans start chanting SKIINNNER. He will be toast
Bring back Kosko, he was a big goalie that had potential.
Doughty didn't even shoot….and it still went in…I've never seen a goalie try and stop a breakaway with his skate while standing straight up ….
TSN is the cnn of sports shows …. Lame ,annoying and regurgitated nonsense…
Here's how you fix Skinner's playoff problems:
Trade him to a team that doesn't make the playoffs.
Edmonton has 2 backup goalies,they chose to not address this problem and it will cost them again,no question.The Oilers will have to score 5 to 6 goals a night to counteract Skinner.
It's a Ken Holland problem. To think in his short career as a player he was a Goalie. He's left the Oiler's with no chance at a Stanley Cup run. It will be noted: Oilers with perhaps the strongest offense will go without a Cup because of goaltending. Both Skinner and Pickard are back-ups at best. It's all Holland's doing…or lack of.
I really don’t think there’s a problem with skinner. He’s a good goalie, defence is lacking
