The Oilers will turn to Skinner between the pipes on Friday against the Anaheim Ducks. Skinner was solid in his most recent outing, saving 26 of 27 shots (.963 SV%) in a 4-1 over the Utah Hockey Club. Still, the 26-year-old Skinner has faced challenges this season, posting a 2.81 GAA and .897 SV% in 25 games (14-8-3).
Stillman was signed by the Hurricanes in the offseason but has yet to play a game in the 2024-25 season. His last NHL game was in the 2022-23 season as a member of the Buffalo Sabres when he had three points (1G / 2A) in 18 games. He has four points (1G / 3A) in nine games with the Chicago Wolves (AHL) this season.
The Oilers have lost two straight games and will turn to Skinner between the pipes on Tuesday against the Utah Hockey Club. Skinner struggled in his previous outing, allowing four goals on 29 shots (.862 SV%) in a 4-3 loss to the Los Angeles Kings.

Ingram has not played since suffering an upper-body injury on November 18th, missing 18 games, but appears to be nearing a return after being assigned to Tuscon (AHL) for a conditioning stint. Utah HC will hope that the forced time off helped Ingram rediscover his game from a season ago as he had struggled before his injury, sporting an ugly 3.61 GAA and .871 SV% in 13 games (6-4-3)
