Stuart Skinner's Name Being Tossed Around in a Serious Discussion

Stuart Skinner has been in top form since March 1, winning 11 of his last 13 games and earning an impressive 11-1-1 record. He has now joined Matt Murray as the only rookie goaltenders to have won over 25 games in the last 12 years.

This impressive run has generated speculation that Skinner could be a contender for the Calder Trophy, which is awarded to the NHL's top rookie player. Since no rookie is expected to score 60 points this season, Skinner could be in the running for the award and possibly become Edmonton's first Calder winner in years.

Skinner's recent performances have boosted his chances of ending Edmonton's Calder Trophy drought and potentially bringing the award home to the Oilers.
