Jets' Stuart Skinner: Tough outing Friday
Skinner stopped 28 of 32 shots in Friday's 5-2 preseason loss to the Avalanche. The fifth goal was an empty-netter.
Skinner allowed five goals on 64 shots over his two preseason starts. The 27-year-old faced the Avalanche both times, and while he struggled Friday, he looks prepared for the upcoming campaign. Expect Skinner to get as many starts as he can handle early in the season, as the Jets will likely want to ease Domenic DiVincentiis into the backup role.

Jets' Stuart Skinner: Starting in Colorado
Skinner will guard the road goal in Friday's preseason game versus the Avalanche, Bailey Curtis of DNVR Sports reports.
Skinner did well in his first start of the preseason, stopping 31 of 32 shots against the Avalanche. The 27-year-old is poised to be the top goalie for the Jets to begin the season, though that could change if the team gets a goalie back in any eventual trade for Connor Hellebuyck (suspension). Skinner is set to have Domenic DiVincentiis as his backup to open the campaign.

Jets' Stuart Skinner: Shines in Jets debut
Skinner halted 31 of 32 shots on net in Monday's 3-1 preseason win over the Avalanche.
Skinner excelled in his debut with Winnipeg, as he upheld a shutout through the first 54 minutes of the contest. Across 50 regular-season appearances in 2025-26, he posted a 23-17-9 record, a 2.92 GAA and an .888 save percentage. The 27-year-old netminder has been the victim of mixed opinions over the past few seasons, but he's currently looking sharp as the projected No. 1 option between the pipes to open the season due to Connor Hellebuyck (suspension) absence from the team. Provided Hellebuyck doesn't rejoin the Jets, Skinner looks poised to handle a hefty workload in the 2026-27 campaign.

Jets' Stuart Skinner: Starting Monday's preseason game
Skinner will start Monday's preseason game at home against the Avalanche, Ken Wiebe of The Winnipeg Free Press reports.
Skinner signed a two-year, $7.5 million contract with the Jets in July and could begin the regular season as Winnipeg's primary goaltender since Connor Hellebuyck has been suspended by the team amid his looming trade request. Skinner made 50 regular-season appearances between the Oilers and Penguins last year, going 23-17-9 with a 2.92 GAA and .888 save percentage.

Jets' Stuart Skinner: Heading north
Skinner signed a two-year, $7.5 million contract with the Jets on Wednesday, per Elliotte Friedman of Sportsnet.
Skinner had a 23-17-9 record, 2.92 GAA and .888 save percentage in 50 regular-season outings between Edmonton and Pittsburgh in 2025-26. It was his second straight regular season with a save percentage below .900. For now, Skinner projects to be Winnipeg's No. 2 netminder behind Connor Hellebuyck. However, if Hellebuyck gets traded this summer, Skinner would probably begin 2026-27 as Winnipeg's starting goaltender.

Penguins' Stuart Skinner: Flops in Philly
Skinner stopped 24 of 28 shots Wednesday during the Penguins' 5-2 loss to the Flyers in Game 3 of their first-round series. Philadelphia's final goal was scored into an empty net.
Pittsburgh took a 1-0 lead into the first intermission, but Skinner let it slip away in a shaky second period that saw him give up three goals on 15 shots. With the Penguins facing elimination in Game 4 on Saturday and Skinner carrying a 3.08 GAA and .873 save percentage while losing the first three games of the series, coach Dan Muse may have to consider switching to Arturs Silovs between the pipes to try and spark a comeback.

Penguins' Stuart Skinner: Exits ice first Wednesday
Skinner was the first goalie to leave the ice ahead of Wednesday's Game 3 road clash with the Flyers, Dan Potash of Sportsnet Pittsburgh reports, indicating he'll be in goal.
Skinner has suffered three defeats in his last four contests, posting a 3.05 GAA and .878 save percentage along the way. If the 27-year-old Skinner can't pull out a victory in Game 3, it's possible head coach Dan Muse considers changing things up in the crease and giving the nod to Arturs Silovs in Game 4.

Penguins' Stuart Skinner: Gets little help in Game 2 loss
Skinner turned aside 20 of 22 shots Monday during the Penguins' 3-0 loss to the Flyers in Game 2 of their first-round series. Philadelphia's final goal was scored into an empty net.
The 27-year-old netminder kept the visitors off the board through the first half of the game, but after Porter Martone banged home a rebound with just over six minutes left in the second period, Pittsburgh's offense couldn't get off the mat. Skinner has given up five goals on 42 shots to begin the playoffs, and with the Penguins in a 2-0 hole with the series heading back to Philly on Wednesday, head coach Dan Muse may feel compelled to shake things up by making a switch between the pipes.

Penguins' Stuart Skinner: Starting Game 2
Skinner will protect the home net in Game 2 against Philadelphia on Monday, per Michelle Crechiolo of the Penguins' official site.
Skinner is coming off a 17-save effort in Saturday's 3-2 loss to the Flyers in Game 1. If the Penguins fall behind 2-0 in the best-of-seven series, head coach Dan Muse might give Arturs Silovs a turn to start Game 3 in Philadelphia on Wednesday.

Penguins' Stuart Skinner: Tending twine in Game 1
Skinner will patrol the home crease against Philadelphia on Saturday in Game 1, Michelle Crechiolo of the Penguins' official site reports.
Skinner went 2-0-1 in three games against the Flyers during the 2025-26 regular season, stopping 64 of 71 shots. Still, he was inconsistent down the stretch, posting a 4-4-1 record with a 3.50 GAA and an .876 save percentage in his last 10 outings.

Penguins' Stuart Skinner: Yields three goals in loss
Skinner stopped 17 of 20 shots in Saturday's 3-2 loss to the Flyers in Game 1.
Skinner was strong early on, but the Flyers scored a pair of goals in the third period. The 27-year-old Skinner went 4-5-4 with a 3.24 GAA and an .884 save percentage over 14 outings after the Olympic break. That's not a great run of form for the goalie, but he has the edge over Arturs Silovs for playing time. Skinner's experience could be the difference. Over three previous playoff runs, he has a combined 26-22 record with a 2.88 GAA, an .893 save percentage and four shutouts in 50 appearances. That includes taking the Oilers to the Stanley Cup Finals in each of the past two postseasons.

Penguins' Stuart Skinner: Plays two periods Tuesday
Skinner stopped 17 of 21 shots in Tuesday's 7-5 loss to the Blues.
Skinner played two periods and didn't do well. The decision to pull him for Arturs Silovs may have been partially performance-based, but the Penguins also have split the crease a fair amount this season, so keeping both goalies fresh for the playoffs could be a factor. Since Skinner left when the game was tied, he didn't end up with a result. He'll finish the regular season at 23-17-9 with a 2.92 GAA and an .888 save percentage over 50 games between the Penguins and the Oilers. The Penguins haven't announced their starter for Game 1 versus the Flyers yet.

Penguins' Stuart Skinner: First goalie off Tuesday
Skinner was the first goalie to leave the ice Tuesday, Penguins play-by-play announcer Josh Getzoff reports, indicating he'll be between the pipes on the road against the Blues.
Skinner is set to take the regular-season finale, which figures to be a nice tune-up for the veteran netminder before he heads into the playoffs as Pittsburgh's No. 1 option in the crease. Since being acquired by the team via trade this season, the Edmonton native has gone 12-9-5 with a 2.91 GAA and .887 save percentage in 26 contests.

Penguins' Stuart Skinner: Yields two goals in loss
Skinner stopped 23 of 25 shots on net in Sunday's 3-0 loss to the Capitals.
Skinner was left on an island Sunday, as the Penguins' offense came up empty while he allowed just one goal inside the first 55 minutes of the contest. With the loss, he now holds a 23-17-9 record, an .889 save percentage and a 2.87 GAA across 49 outings this season. He's alternated wins and losses over his last seven outings, making him a risky fantasy option ahead of Pittsburgh's final game of the regular season against the Blues.

Penguins' Stuart Skinner: Tending twine Sunday
Skinner will defend the road net against Washington on Sunday, Michelle Crechiolo of the Penguins' official site reports.
Skinner will get the second half of Pittsburgh's back-to-back after Arturs Silovs played in Saturday's 6-3 loss to the Capitals. The 27-year-old Skinner is coming off a 19-save performance in Thursday's 5-2 win over New Jersey. Washington ranks 14th in the league with 3.20 goals per game this season.

Penguins' Stuart Skinner: Snags win over Devils
Skinner made 19 saves in Thursday's 5-2 win over New Jersey.
The Penguins never trailed in the game as they clinched a playoff spot. Skinner has been inconsistent at best since the Olympic break while working in a timeshare with the Arturs Silovs, and the former is running out of time to make a clear case to be the team's No. 1 in the postseason. Over his last 12 outings, Skinner has gone 4-4-4 with a 3.18 GAA and .885 save percentage.
