This is obvious to everyone outside of Edmonton and Stu's little cult. As an Oilers fan, it's maddening seeing so many Skinner apologists online. I honestly detest them more than the fanbase of any other team (so much so that I'm banned from HF Oilers) because their support for Skinner validates management's blind faith in such a pitiful starter who has arguably cost the McDrai Oilers two cups and counting...
John Gibson is there to trade for unless Gibson doesn't want to go to Edmonton.

None of it matters. Kings sustain a bunch of pressure, score a goal, and Oilers get a PP and undo it all in ten seconds of PP time. Such is life.

I'm not a huge fan of Gibson coming here, but we need someone besides a career AHLer in Pickard (who is outplaying Skinner btw) to bail out Stu when he collapses again.

Honestly, there's probably a few cheap backups or third-string goalies who can still be a massive upgrade over Stu... He's much worse than a lot of people realize, but the Oilers have generally been playing great defense as of late.

Gavrikov for zero reason just turns it over. As much as I like gavrikov, his brain shuts off and he plays like a moron against the oilers
