Stuart Skinner was traded to the Pittsburgh Penguins on Friday by the Edmonton Oilers for Tristan Jarry in a swap of goalies.

Pittsburgh also received defenseman Brett Kulak and a second-round pick in the 2029 NHL Draft. Edmonton received forward Samuel Poulin, who is currently in the American Hockey League.

“I think it’s not so much a comment on Stuart Skinner, it’s just really maybe time for something different here,” Oilers general manager Stan Bowman said. “But I think we wanted to make sure that the person we were bringing in, we felt confident."

Skinner is 11-8-4 with a 2.83 goals-against average, .891 save percentage and two shutouts in 23 games this season. He made 27 saves in a 4-1 win against the Detroit Red Wings on Thursday. He was 3-1-0 in his past four starts.
