Skinner will defend the home crease against the Canucks on Thursday, Mike McIntyre of the Winnipeg Free Press reports.
Skinner picked up his first win since Oct. 13 during Tuesday's 5-4 victory over the Canadiens, and he'll draw a third consecutive start Thursday. Across his 11 starts this year, he's gone 4-4-3 with a 3.41 GAA and .882 save percentage. The Canucks have recorded 3.00 goals per game to begin the regular season, which is tied for 19th in the NHL.
