Skinner will start on Wednesday vs. Washington.

Skinner has only started one of the last three games but will return to the crease on Wednesday against the Washington Capitals. His recent inactivity hasn't resulted from poor play as he has been impressive lately, allowing two or fewer goals in five straight (4-0-1), posting a .947 SV%.

Attard will make his Flyers' season debut on Thursday in Florida.

Attard last appeared in the NHL in April of 2023 and will find himself in Philadelphia's lineup for the first time in the 2023-24 season as he replaces the traded Sean Walker. The 24-year-old is still technically a rookie even though he appeared in 15 games in 2021-22 and had four points (2G/2A) and eight PIMs during that season.

The Oilers have acquired Troy Stecher and a 2024 seventh-round pick from the Coyotes for a 2027 fourth-round pick.

Stecher will add some depth to the Oilers blueline ahead of Friday's trade deadline. The 29-year-old defenseman is in his eighth NHL season and has five points (1G / 4A), 52 hits, and 67 blocks in 47 games this season.

Pickard will start on Thursday in Columbus.

Pickard has been excellent in a backup role since joining the Oilers in November and will return to the crease for the second time in the last three games. In his last outing, Pickard saved 22 of 23 shots (.957 SV%), having his shutout bid snapped in the third period in a 6-1 victory over the Pittsburgh Penguins. The Oilers enter action as -261 road favourites on Thursday against the Columbus Blue Jackets.
