EDMONTON — Goaltender Stuart Skinner will start for the Edmonton Oilers in Game 4 of their second-round playoff series against the Vegas Golden Knights.

Oilers head coach Kris Knoblauch said Calvin Pickard remains day-to-day with an injury and will not play Monday.

Edmonton returned to Skinner in Game 3, which the Oilers lost 4-3 at Rogers Place. It was Skinner’s first playoff start since Pickard replaced him for the third game of the first round against the Los Angeles Kings.

Pickard and the Oilers won six in a row, but he was injured in Game 2 against Vegas when Tomas Hertl landed on his left leg.

Skinner made 20 saves in Game 3. Reilly Smith scored the winner for the Golden Knights with four-tenths of a second remaining on the clock.
