RDOilerfan wrote on Mon, 06 March 2023 08:30 | So if it's the goalies coaches fault for Campbell, how does one explain Skinner? Schwartz would have had a huge hand in his development and it appears the Oilers have developed a home grown starter.
I am not sticking up for Schwartz because the Oilers have a problem here with Campbell but I am just asking a question if he's bad at his job then Skinner should be lousy as well but he's not. The whole Campbell situation is baffling to me. He looks to be unplayable again which I don't understand how that happened as he looked to have figured out his game coming out of Christmas and it literally looks like a switch got flipped.

Not blaming Schwartz exactly but just an observation, Skinners game has been a lot more up and down the longer he has been with the big club. So many reasons it can happen, like just the stress of a workload he has never had at the NHL level. Having a kid never seems to help an oilers goalie. Maybe the team in general has been slowly chipping away his confidence a bit by playing like ass for him most of the year and trying much harder when Campbell was in net (that may have swung finally in the last couple weeks). The org overall was showing clearly how desperate they were for Campbell up be the guy which I'm sure Skinner was not blind to. The need to try to justify a huge contract is a dangerous thing.
Overall though I think skinner's game has degraded a bit through the season. Still the way better option than Campbell of course. Hopefully Skinner can get on a nice run leading up to the playoffs.
Still waiting to see an Oilers goalie improve after joining our team under Schwartz. They always peak early followed by a slow decline. Maybe Campbell will do it, since he is starting at an ECHL level.
