Skinner will defend the road net against the Red Wings on Sunday, according to Ken Wiebe of The Winnipeg Free Press.
In his Winnipeg debut, Skinner made 26 saves in Friday's 4-3 overtime loss to Boston. He has posted a 4-2-1 record while allowing only 15 goals on 198 shots in seven previous regular-season meetings against the Red Wings. Detroit is coming off a 2-0 loss to the Rangers on Friday.
