@jimlil It’s my only disappointment with GM Stan Bowman so far, that he placated Oilerville and it’s irrational demand to “solve the goalie problem.”
As for regretting the trade, I regretted it the moment it was made, Dec 12. How well will it age? That should come clear this spring as both Penguins and Oilers look to be heading for the playoffs, with “new” goalies in net. One goalie with an impressive playoff (and especially clutch game) WIN%, the other not so much.

@jimlil Oilerville doesn’t know what we had. Wishing Skinner, Pens, and Pens fans lots of luck. I’m hoping it’s not a Pens v Oilers SCF! (Though that would be just desserts)

@jimlil As an Oilers fan I was not /am not happy that management caved to outside pressure on Skinner. Now I’m enjoying watching him thrive with the Pens (and not enjoying watching Oilers stumble —it’s getting better, but Skinner was never the problem). Meanwhile, Jarry, who may be a fine goalie, is hurt.
