NHL fines Oilers' Skinner K for embellishment

NEW YORK —

Skinner was being followed by Rangers defenseman K’Andre Miller as he had the puck along the boards in the New York zone.

Skinner lost his footing and the puck despite minimal contact from Miller. The Oilers forward looked toward the referee as he got up but no penalty call was made on the play.

The money goes to the Players’ Emergency Assistance Fund.
