The Oilers have taken one step closer to finding stability in net.
The Edmonton Oilers kicked off their Monday morning by taking care of an important piece of business, agreeing to terms with goaltender Stuart Skinner on a three-year contract extension worth an average annual value of $2.6 million.
The deal, which ties Skinner to Edmonton through the 2025-26 season, sets the young netminder up nicely for his next contract at the age of 27 and also demonstrates the level of trust the Oilers have in him following his hot start to the year.
