‘I’ve felt all along that Skinner would be re-signed for a few reasons including the eighth year that other teams won’t be able to offer and the ability to play with Jack Eichel who played a key role in Skinner’s career best 40 goal season. I know we are talking about a lot of money and a contract that will take Skinner to age 35 but I think Botterill knows how important Skinner is to their hopes of turning around the franchise. His departure would create a huge hole on an offense that already lacks firepower.’
