Skinner Hurt

Post by Louis Lipps Service » Mon Apr 06, 2026 3:18 pm

Supposedly took a puck to the face, near his eye, while sitting on the bench for the first Panthers game.

Considering that he still dressed as the backup for yesterday's game, I'm assuming it's not serious.

That said, they have called up Murashov who will be with the team in case Skinner isn't back for the next game.

Pens are actually sitting in a good spot right now. They haven't officially clinched a playoff spot, but without spending any time to do the math, I have to imagine they're only another win or two away from doing so.

So I'd personally feel pretty good about putting Murashov in for a game or two just to see what he has.

Magic number is 2. So either a Pens win or loss by chasing teams.
