Skinner stopped 18 of 19 shots in Wednesday's 4-1 win over the Flames.

Skinner picked up his third straight win and his fifth in six outings in January. The 27-year-old netminder also started consecutive games for the first time in his Penguins tenure, which suggests he may be pulling away from a timeshare with Arturs Silovs. On the season, Skinner is 17-12-4 with a 2.67 GAA and an .894 save percentage over 33 starts, but he's been better in Pittsburgh than he was in Edmonton. He will likely avoid a rematch with his former team, as Silovs could be between the pipes against the Oilers on Thursday in the second half of the back-to-back.
