Skinner turned aside 25 shots in Saturday's 4-3 overtime loss to the Kings.
The Oilers held a 3-2 lead going into the third period, but Tanner Jeannot tied it up early in the frame before Quinton Byfield snapped home the OT winner. It was a rare December misstep for Skinner, who has allowed two goals or fewer in five of eight starts this month while going 5-2-1 with a 2.50 GAA and .907 save percentage.
