there’s no shot skinner starts tomorrow. i will take my neighbour’s shoe and eat it if he does
The 2020 Blues strategy
Gg, I guess they concede
If Petey can’t score 1 or 2 on him then the slump isn’t over.
ballsy move. gonna be great game regardless
It’s kind of expected. They already have one broken goalie, if they get knocked out without going back to him he’ll never be a starter
My mom’s wish came true…..
During game 5, she was chanting (at home, at the tv); WE WANT SKINNER! WE WANT SKINNER!!
Yes do it.
There’s no way. There’s no way. There’s no way in hell Edmonton could possibly be stupid enough to go with Skinner.
… I mean, ***I sure hope they do!*** But Pickard was their best player last game, and Skinner is a sieve.
There’s no way they start with Skinner unless Pickard is injured or fatigued.
Must be an injury? Or just some slight deception. Other than that I dont see a good reason
Makes no sense
He fell for primetimesnoop
I think it’s a fake out. Not willing to eat a shoe or anything like poster above, but my completely uninformed gut feeling is Pickard.
Elliot Friedman has not been watching this series.
Would be a big fuck u to pickard. He’s been their best player since taking over
If Konblauch starts Skinner, that would be a slap in the face not only to Pickard but to the entire team. Skinner currently does not give Edmonton the best chance to win. Pickard has done everything asked of him in these two games and has given them a chance to win.
Please do. Pickard is all the oilers need, just someone to stop the puck from time to time and has been way more consistent. If they go skinner, they’re losing, and it would be sweet

Doesn’t matter who they start. Canucks in 6. LFG.
A few people (media) have said that Skinner was hurt… This should be interesting.
Do it. Do it now!
Good
…why?
Starting Pickard is a mistake after the game he had. Got super lucky and he knows it while the tape left an area for the Canucks to attack, his absolutely nuts rebounds
The only reason I can think is that Pickard is fatigued and they’d rather start him in a hypothetical game 7
This is the third analyst that has guessed this, so maybe it’s actually possible 🤷♂️
Only reason this would make sense is if Pickard is fatigued. He hasn’t played this many games in a row, this quickly, in a few seasons I think.
