"Skinner's got a higher upside," former NHL goalie Cory Schneider said. "His best is better than Cal Pickard's."

The Edmonton Oilers have played both of their two netminders throughout this year’s Stanley Cup Playoffs, with both Stuart Skinner and Calvin Pickard featuring and winning for the team throughout stretches.

Greg Wyshynski of ESPN reported that the Oilers will be starting backup goaltender Calvin Pickard over starter Stuart Skinner in Game 5 of the Stanley Cup Playoffs. This comes after Skinner was pulled in Games 3 and 4. Pickard notably backstopped the team to an overtime victory in Game 4.
