Stuart Skinner - Yields two goals in loss Skinner stopped 23 of 25 shots on net in Sunday's 3-0 loss to the Capitals.

Impact 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 high-risk, high-reward fantasy option ahead of Pittsburgh's final game of the regular season. If he is called upon to start over Arturs Silovs, Skinner will have his work cut out for him against the hot Blues' offense.

Impact Hayes hadn't played since March 3 in Boston. He spent at least seven of those 19 games out of the lineup dealing with an upper-body, though he's often been a healthy scratch this season. The 33-year-old will get a chance to play late in the regular season as the Penguins have rotated their lineup heavily after clinching a playoff spot. Hayes has been limited to six points, 41 shots on net, 32 hits and a minus-4 rating over 26 outings this season.
