i really don't get it, but whatevs wild. it does make me wonder if this means the slugs are putting skinner back with jack? kevyn adams never struck me as dumb, so no way this is a reunite skinner/staal move. and they ain't paying the man 9meeeeellion dollary-doos to play on the third line.
skinner being away from eichel so much was a head-scratcher to me anyway, but maybe this is the gm's way to force the coach to put skinner back on the first line. because, as someone here pointed out previously, staal and skinner just never worked.
