Skinner moves away from Staal but can score on his own.The reigning Calder Memorial Trophy winner has two goals and six points over his first seven games this season.
Skinner playing on the top line should do wonders for his fantasy hockey value. Last season he scored 31 goals and 63 points over 82 games in his rookie season. As a natural goal scorer, he very well could score 40 goals at some point in his career.
