Let him play a ton in the AHL where he got better and better every season. Gave him a taste in the NHL with 13 games last year and so far, it looks like they have developed a more than capable good NHL back up who has the potential to be a home grown quality NHL starter. I have a hard time saying they should have done anything different with this particular player.

At this point it is hard to disagree with how they handled everything, especially considering how they had to manage Koski and Smith last year, but it was such a weird way for Skinner to finish his NHL season. Pitches a shut out and never sees the NHL again until the start of this season.
If they had the balls to run Skinner for a bit to see if he was legitimate and send Koskinen to Bakersfield, do they have the same player we see today? Do the Oilers go on their playoff run? do they sign Campbell to 5 years? Lots of alternate universe scenarios I would have loved to see play out....or not.
Right now I really like what we have between the pipes, and if both are playing like this moving forward then it is a great problem to have.
