Post-Game Talk: Welcome to the Skinner Circus

[Oilhawks]

Is Matt Berlin available? He's probably better, no joke

 

[McHelpus]

Both Skinners are just trash.

 

[Zguy370]

There are what like 26 teams in the AHL, if we trade for say at least half their starting goalies, like for the best 13 of them, they would be our #1 starter compared to this fraud that we have

 

[iCanada]

A tough situation but so little room to make a move.

Well, we might have 9.25 million in cap space to spend after the second period tonight.

 

[jesusbuiltmyhotrod]

Actually yeah he is. That's pretty much literally the job description.

None of the first 3 goals are really on Stu but the team just played yet another game where their goalie couldn't come up a single key stop when that was all they needed to win.

These posts defending skinner be like reading trump supporters on X

 

[TB12]

"And here we are with Bissonnette.."

*click* TV off. Bissonnette is the Stu Skinner of announcers (not a compliment)

 

[Tobias Kahun]

Just hope Nurse is okay.

 

[Oilhawks]

Lucky to get a point tonight. We didn’t deserve it.

Easy to blame Skinner but he shouldn’t of even played this game. With the way the goaltending is this year, any goalie who posts a 900+ should get the next game. This organization keeps trodding out Skinner no matter how he plays.

This team got outshot on a 5 min powerplay? Pathetic. Team has no killer instinct.

Why this team thinks they can lock it down in the third period and take their foot off the gas, I don’t understand.

Feels like the majority of teams have figured out how to play us and beat us. We are so stubborn that we never do anything else.

Hopefully Nurse is ok.

These good ol' Ontaria boys seem all too happy to have some home cookin' and get cooked by the Laffs. I think they win there more than at home vs the Leafs but either way, it feels like it's an ugly record

 

[KeithIsActuallyBad]

You know what, Skinner deserves a chance with another goalie coach.

I think that is something we could ALL agree with.

Get him a real goalie coach and see if that helps.

Sorry we aren’t allowed to do that.

 

[bellagiobob]

Skinner looked 5'5' on the OT goal. Guy just doesn't come up clutch ever.

Same as Koskinen. We all know what the common denominator for both of them that is still here is. The pictures that guy must have.

 

[MoontoScott]

Sh*tter gifts another... Guy is worse than Jack Campbell now.

It will be interesting at the end of the season for someone to tally up how many nights the Oilers had the better goalie. My guess is less than 10.

Anyway--another strong game from Mc-D. He is quietly piling up the multi-point games.

 

[Tobias Kahun]

"And here we are with Bissonnette.."

Thats a little too far.

Skinner isnt that bad.

 

[Cloned]

Watching the replay holy f*** what in the mother of McJesus is Skinner doing?

He squares himself up to Bouchard instead of the shooter.

 

[rickysusedsht]

Enough of California closets...send this fat fu*k packing

 

[TB12]

Two straight games dumb plays at the back blow a lead. Want to blame Skinner, fine, but the goalie isn’t there just to cover for bad defense.

That's literally EXACTLY what he is there for.

What are they saying after the game about the injury status?

 

[Tobias Kahun]

He did his job.

He covered Bouchard.

 

[Garbo Man]

Bouchard played it well.

He played it borderline perfect. Would've taken a miracle for Marner to get a puck through for a pass. Marner had 1 option and that was to shoot. Skinner barely even f***in moved

 

[CycloneSweep]

Actually yeah he is. That's pretty much literally the job description.

People act like we are the ONLY team in the league that have breakdowns in games. ALL teams do. All teams have guys who occasionally shut off their brains and the goalie has to make a save. And often their goalies MAKE that save.
Like I challenge people to go watch a team like Dallas or Minnesota.

 

[Frank Drebin]

Why do they keep going back to the skinner well?

Guy is not an nhl goalie

 

[DavidHasselhoffsFist]

Sh*tter gifts another... Guy is worse than Jack Campbell now.

I’ll let you in on a secret
He was worse than Campbell when they sent jack down last year.

 

[McFlyingV]

Just hope Nurse is okay.

What's you definition of ok? He almost without a doubt has a concussion and will be out weeks not days.

 

[Drivesaitl]

Love the person, hate the goalie.

I don't like either. Stuck up f***, clown goalie. Skinner snatching defeat from Victory. Mr, Clutch allowing 3GA late in game on 3 Leafs scoring chances and once again the worst goalie on the ice. I mean its 90% of the time at least.

Leafs had no business even being in this game generating nothing most of the game. Skinner says hold my beer. 20SOG 4GA. Several of the shots were pad stuffers. I think he made one good save all night.

He has horrible instincts and bad movement. We win a cup already with decent goaltending’s
