Weak year when Skinner is an option.

He will get first place votes and not just from Edmonton media.

Yeah. Decent performance for a rookie goalie, but in a typical year, I don't think he makes it in the top three.

Nah, Edmonton media only. Come on now.

20th in Sv% and 27th in GAA.

Not rookie of the year credentials.

Not even rookie of the year consideration credentials in 99/100 years.

Care to explain why you think that?

Stats wise he certainly doesn't stand out. In fact he's below average in GAA and SV%.

I'm disappointed that Matias Maccelli didn't make it over Skinner. I feel like we'll look back at this year in a decade and collectively wonder how that Oiler goalie was ever nominated.

Most recent goalie “finalist” was Alex Nedeljkovic in 2020/21. Was 15-5-3 with a .932 and 1.90 GAA.

Finished third behind Kaprizov and Jason Robertson. Shesterkin was 5th.

And they have been waiting and waiting and waiting for an Oiler to appear on the ballot, any ballot so they can put in their first place vote.

Why would I do that? Your angle is he’ll get votes because he’s earned it. He’ll get votes because the people that get to vote on this stuff are generally idiots (and closet Oiler fans).

Skinner likely got Thompson’s spot since he got injured. Doesn’t matter really as Daddy Veneers probably runs away with it

So two Oiler fan boys voted for him counts as votes outside Edmonton?

He shouldn't even be top 5.
