This is not true. Skinner missed 4 games last year, 11 the year before, and 6 the year before. He did miss 18 in 11-12 but people talk like he is done and is always hurt which is not actually the case.

I wonder if they move Skinner because he makes $5.5M and a lot of teams would take that contract on no problem. They are looking to re-sign Staal next summer and have some other bad contracts on the books they won't be able to move. As a budget team Skinner is easily the most movable piece (assuming Staal is untouchable)
