Is Stuart Skinner Really One of the Best? The Story Behind His 100 Wins Has Oilers Fans Talking

😱 “Is Stuart Skinner Really One of the Best? The Story Behind His 100 Wins Has Oilers Fans Talking! ”

When Stuart Skinner reached his 100th win with the Edmonton Oilers, fans and commentators quickly took to social media — but not everyone is happy about it. Some people are saying it’s “the most exaggerated record in recent Oilers history,” while others feel that Skinner has quietly made a name for himself among the top goalies in the franchise.

Unlike legends like Grant Fuhr, Bill Ranford, and Tommy Salo, Skinner’s achievements are unique because he got to 100 wins in a time when the pressure, stats, and expectations from fans are much higher. However, critics say that Skinner’s statistics don’t compare to Fuhr’s amazing clutch performances or Ranford’s key moments in championships.

Nevertheless, it’s clear that Skinner has been a key player for this generation of Oilers fans. He has been the foundation of a team that has dealt with defensive struggles, shaky starts, and a lot of negativity. What makes his story debated is the belief that he’s “not good enough” when compared to the legends — even though his steady play and calmness suggest otherwise.

Many fans on X (Twitter) are discussing whether Skinner’s achievement means he’s reaching legendary status or if he’s just getting help from a team full of high-scoring players. Some even argue that he’s been lifted by McDavid and Draisaitl, a discussion that continues despite his big saves when it matters most.

One thing is clear: Stuart Skinner’s 100th win has sparked a heated conversation about what it really means to be an “elite” goalie in Edmonton. Whether you view him as overrated or as the Oilers’ next great protector, this milestone is not just a number — it reflects the split feelings of Oilers fans.

🔥 Do you think Skinner should be compared to Fuhr and Ranford — or is he nowhere close?
