According to Liam McCormick of Oilers Daily, This season hasn't gone as planned for Skinner, which has landed him in trade rumours, but it looks like the coach is finally beginning to come around on him - and Skinner worked hard to get to that point.
The first line featuring Victor Arvidsson will remain intact, as well as Nugent-Hopkins centering the third line with Janmark and Brown. The defence pairs hold steady, and
Stuart Skinner will get the start in goal tonight.
Colorado Avalanche projected lineup
Puck drop is set for 7:00 PM MT.
