Beaten once Sunday Skinner stopped 17 of 18 shots in Sunday's 1-0 loss to the Bruins.

Impact Skinner was beaten by Viktor Arvidsson's backhander in the first period, and that would be all the offense the Bruins would generate throughout the game. Even though Skinner posted a strong showing between the posts, the offense didn't support, and that led to him ending his three-game winning streak. He continues to play well at an individual level despite the win-loss record, though, as Skinner has now posted four straight games with a save percentage of at least .915.

Excels in net Thursday Skinner halted 28 of 29 shots on net in Thursday's 4-1 win over New Jersey.

Impact Skinner was perfect at even strength Thursday, as he allowed just one power-play tally early in the third period en route to his third consecutive win. With Thursday's victory, he is up to a 14-11-1 overall record, a 2.77 GAA and an .892 save percentage across 29 games between Edmonton and Pittsburgh this season. After three consecutive losses to start his tenure with the Penguins, the 27-year-old netminder has a 3-0-0 record with a 1.00 GAA and a .957 save percentage over his last three starts. Pittsburgh has won each of its last six games and will need Skinner to keep up at least a fraction of his recent form if the Penguins are to make a push for a playoff spot in the Metropolitan Division. Regardless of his past struggles for consistency, the polarizing goalie is a top streaming option in fantasy formats while he soars on his current win streak.

Skinner beat the Canes 5-1 on Tuesday night.

Between pipes versus Leafs Skinner will tend the twine for Tuesday's road tilt with Toronto, Jason Mackey of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette reports.

Impact Skinner has underwhelmed since joining the Penguins, going 0-2-0 with a 4.25 GAA and .810 save percentage in his two outings for his new club. If the 27-year-old backstop continues to struggle, the Pens may consider bringing Sergei Murashov up from the minors to compete for Skinner and Arturs Silovs.

Allows three goals Saturday Skinner stopped 17 of 20 shots in Saturday's 4-0 loss to the Canadiens. The fourth goal was an empty-netter in the final period.

Impact Skinner is yet to record his first win since being traded from the Oilers to the Penguins earlier this month. In his two starts with Pittsburgh, the 27-year-old has stopped 34 of 42 shots, which translates to a disappointing .810 save percentage. Skinner should continue to get ample opportunities to protect the Penguins' crease going forward, but his first two outings with the team haven't left many positive remarks.
