The whole puck moving with the goalies thing is really starting to bother me. When Smith is in, I get it and why the coaches like it. He's the best in the league by a lot and it's a weapon that no other teams have. BUT he's a unicorn. No one in the league is like him so expecting the other goalies to do similar things when it's not in their skillset isn't realistic. It's literally costing them goals and in this case the game. The Oilers were flat last night, they didn't deserve to win but the game winner was a direct result of Skinner miss handling the puck. If he doesn't do that or feel compelled to do that because of Smith, that goal doesn't happen and at worst the Oilers squeak out with an underserved point and going into OT with McD and Leon, I am taking the Oilers 10 out of 10 times in OT.

Despite the obvious gaffe, I thought Skinner looked pretty good handling the puck. I'm OK with him developing that skill as a 23 year old on a team that was 9-1. It definitely is a plus when you have a guy back there who can play the puck like Smith does. Koskinen on the other hand, he looks like junk playing the puck, and at 33 I have to think chances for development in that area are fairly limited.
