Jeff Skinner Heads to Switzerland | Edmonton Oilers News

Jeff Skinner’s NHL chapter may be over, but his hockey career isn’t slowing down—he’s heading overseas to Switzerland, signing a one-year deal with EHC Biel-Bienne. After a disappointing stint with the Sharks and being left unsigned by NHL teams, Skinner brings his veteran savvy to the National League, reuniting with former Oilers teammates Gaetan Haas and Toni Rajala. Despite scoring 40+ goals in multiple seasons and winning a Calder Trophy, his recent NHL days were marked by limited ice time and a healthy scratch role. Still, his legacy remains strong—especially with the Sabres, who’re still paying the price for his buyout. At 34, Skinner’s chasing new highs in Switzerland, proving age is just a number on the ice.
