From the Oilers perspective, they ain’t winning with skinner so it’s no risk trying something else. A low cost option since they don’t have ammunition for a real proven upgrade
In a cap world I'd consider it pretty high risk, low reward for the Oilers. Jarry is in year 3 of 5 years at 5.4 while Skinner is upcoming UFA. Not to mention they lost a decent defenseman.

Again, there is a reason the Pens did this.
