fine with this, but will hope he gets more ice time than they gave Daniel Bernhardt, more like maybe Joey Keane's ice-time
Should be a good opportunity for Skinner. London only had Keane for half a year and he's turning pro, but I also expect Bouchard and Boqvist to make the jump. Plenty of spots up for grabs on that right side as I think Regular will be the only experienced RD coming back.

Skinner should definitely get ice time, i think the 2RD spot is his to lose.

I cannot believe this was once considered the height of coolness and male attractiveness.
Leafs fan/Knights season ticket holder.
Got a chance to see Skinner for the first time tonight and was very impressed. He played huge minutes for the Knights in all situations. His skating is really strong and he controlled the flow of the game whenever he was on the ice. Rangy defender but real good coordination, moves the puck real well. Seems like the Knights are gonna lean on him a ton this season.

Almost forgot, he also had 2 goals, he’s got a big shot.

He had 2 with Lincoln after he was traded there, but 5 for the season. Still a great start for him

Saw his big shot on display at Development camp. I think this kid is in line for a huge year with London. I really, really like the three D we drafted this summer. Gonna be a fun year keeping tabs.

He's also clueless when it comes to prospects, which is strange for someone who covers prospects.

Jess is a nice guy, he's just very old school on how he evaluates players. But he's a big fan and a nice person. He's older, so it's not surprising his evaluation methods are antiquated. Prospect Park used to be a good place to go to read about prospects, like 15+ years or so back. Although in retrospect it's clear he wasn't likely watching the prospects, but still, he did have a few minor connections and occasionally would report on things regarding the prospects that would otherwise go unreported.
I have no problem with Jess.

This one is for @nyr2k2
Interesting story coming up about Skinner. A long-shot prospect and widely regarded the "worst pick in the 2019 draft" by the Rangers, but he may surprise us all
