Be interesting to see how Skinner would respond to a tandem. Would it challenge him? His role on the team has been without dispute for a while now. Or would he regress? Most would say it would motivate him, but I wonder how he would handle that pressure as well though.
It’s understood that Gibson wants a #1 role. So Skinner would be going the other way or moved later. The more I mull this over, the more I doubt there’s anything there.
|
Or do we keep Pickard? Skinner typically needs a few games to get rolling and find his groove. Pickard you can send in anytime and you’ll still get him at a consistent level. I’m not sure Skinner is the backup type you can count on at the drop of a hat.
|
How long is Pickard able to carry the mail if Gibson gets injured? Seems more injury prone than Skinner. Just wish I had a feel for how much improvement Gibson would bring.
It feels safer if they can create a Skinner/Gibson tandem, but is harder on the cap. I think they will opt to address other things, but I still have reservations about the crease.
|
I think a Gibson/Pickard tandem has the same issues. If the one goalie falters, the other guy is a 30+ career backup.
Pickard has played some of his best hockey of his career as an Oiler...however, he tends to play mostly against scrub teams. His record against playoff-bound teams is considerably less impressive. He's a true back-up goalie, and I don't think with a true contending team that you should leave the chance open that we are one injury away from needing an older backup goalie with almost no playoff experience in his entire career to have the best month of his life in order to win us a Cup.
Ideally, we trade for a 1A to run with Skinner and Pickard either goes the other way in the deal or becomes a #3 option.
