He is a great add because he's gonna be hungry for playoffs and winning a cup so he'll play any role by the end of hte season and has the ability to prob score 30 quite easily still playing with our big boys. At worst he's only a 3M contract we could unload at the deadline if the fit wasn't there. This is an awesome bet for us.
Welcome Jeff, you made a really smart move. He's going to play playoff hockey and get to play with one of McDavid, Draisaitl and Henrique. That can't be matched.
I can’t believe they got him for $3M. He’s easily better than any 2nd line player. He’s so quick on the turn. 3 steps and he’s gone…he handles the puck like it’s weightless and wait until you see his slapshot. It doesn’t come at the goalie hard and low… he has such a fast release it almost looks like it’s not coming off his stick… upper corner, upper post. I think he would be deadly on the 1st line but after a 57 goal season by you know who, he deserves a 1st line spot.
I'm excited to have Skinner on board. I always liked him on Buffalo and felt that he never got the support he needed. I hope the Oilers bring the best out of him.
spec you're such a fluff reporter.. buddy 'you think itll be nice to play with some of the best players in history?' what's next "do you think it'll be nice to play your first playoff game after 1000 regular season games"?
@@dizawnofwizar , he’s an antagonist for sure, but he’s also an Oilers media legend at this point, he’s been around so long. I wouldn’t call a guy who’s been around since the 80s and has books about this team a fluff reporter.
Consistent 40-50 point scorer on a terrible team for 3mil on a one year contract is an absolute steal. So what if he doesn’t have playoff experience, literally the entire Oiler’s team has Stanley Cup Final experience now. If anything I’d guess Jeff is hungry for a playoff run. And if he doesn’t work out, oh well, it’s only a one year contract.
Welcome to The team Jeff Great to have you in Oil Country
Welcome Jeff , the oilers fan base is happy today!
Thank god skinners here and thank god spec was here to ask the exact same question after it was already asked. Quality Journalism👏
Doesn't get any better than Spec. Edmonton is lucky to have him. 😅
Can’t wait until he really meets Jim “Pissy” Matheson.
quality and Spec don't belong together
😂
We know talent so welcome to Edmonton. You will have a great time playing here.
From Foegle to My Name JEFF!
Underrated comment 😂
From McLovin.....
I’ve been a fan of this guy since he came into the NHL. Welcome to the Oilers Jeff!
I remember not that long ago, when skilled players wanted nothing to do with the Oil. Now they’re seeking the team out. Warms my heart.

Welcome jeff let's hope we can repeat this past season but hoist the cup this time 🎉
There ain’t a star in heaven that we can’t reach with you on the squad, Jeff.
Spec, meet Skinner. Skinner, meet Spec. Nobody likes Spec.

Right on more depth scoring just what we need
Skinner my guy!!! Welcome home - get an Edmonton donair and play some golf at Coal Creek.
Haha
Welcome skinner
Welcome Jeff! Please consider #47! :)
Another X Sabre going to become a superstar just like the last 5 or 6 that now have won Cups.
I'm not sure if this is Between Two Stalls or for real?
He will score 35 next year
We now have two Skinners & three Connors😎🔵🟠
Two Browns, and we lost Sam Carrick but gained Connor Carrick…
...and 2 Mattias
@@GT-bx1jp yeah that too
Start growing that moustache kid!
2 Skinners and 2 Browns, cup is ours
Three Connors
Sadly, we traded a Carrick but got another Carrick.
Can't wait to be confused about two Browns and now two Skinners
Well the Skinners have completely different gear so at least we can find them on the ice 😆
Three Connors, and wait is that Sam Carrick? No it’s Connor Carrick.
What was the term?
1X3M
They really want all the connors and skinners on the oilers
He just wants to make the playoffs
Spector is insufferable lol
Mr. Enthusiasm but I hope he can score.
This is getting out of hand… now there are two Skinners on the team.
LETS GO SKINNER²
LFG
There are players that didnt do well in the playoffs and should be discarded for better ones
Pretty stupid questions 😵💫🤷♂️
Holy mackerel, we’re being completely infiltrated by Torontonians! We need more Swedes! Nah, it’s whomever can bring the heat. Welcome Jeffie!
Alfalfa's ears are is big as Corey Perry's
Lots of guys from Ontario and no Russians on the Oilers makes for a closer and more cohesive team.
Bruh klim kostin was russian and he a great locker room guy. Quit being an npc
@@tomcooks2562 Sure and Ovechkin uses the NHL as a platform to make political statements. Oilers don't want that on their team.
Sure and Ovi uses the NHL to make political statements. Oilers don't need that on their team.
He’ll never play defense doesn’t exist to him
He’s not a defenseman. He’s a sniper.
Haters gonna hate.
Can you grow a beard? Start now
No playoff experience. Terrible grab

@@canadianninja1756agreed! He’ll be pumped knowing playoffs are on the horizon no pressure just playing his game!
Can throw him in on the 4th line if he’s trash.
Now we have Jeff and Stuart
Get ready to hoist the cup, you will in under a year
“ jef_fy it says it on my shirt!” Ahh nsme
