| March 9, 2025 | Skarek was assigned to AHL Bridgeport on Sunday, Stefen Rosner of NHL.com reports. - The Islanders activated Marcus Hogberg (upper body) from injured reserve in a corresponding move to occupy the backup role behind Ilya Sorokin. The 25-year-old Skarek has appeared in two NHL games this season, stopping 34 of 39 shots en route to a record of 0-1-0. | None |
| Feb. 26, 2025 | Skarek stopped all seven shots he faced in relief during Tuesday's 5-1 loss to the Rangers. - Skarek looked solid between the pipes in the third period after replacing Ilya Sorokin, who allowed five goals on 11 shots before being replaced at the start of the third period. Skarek has made just two appearances (one start) this season, stopping 34 of 39 shots and posting a 3.95 GAA. | None |
| Feb. 2, 2025 | Skarek stopped 27 shots out of 32 total in Sunday's 6-3 road loss to the Panthers. - Skarek allowed two goals in each of Sunday's three periods, including two goals in just over the last two minutes of the second frame. The 25-year-old moves to 0-1-0 on the season with a .844 save percentage and a 5.00 GAA after making his NHL debut. In terms of a first performance, Skarek should hold his head high knowing he made 27 saves on the defending champions. In terms of fantasy, however, a larger sample size is necessary before Skarek can become fantasy-relevant. For now, it is best to look elsewhere for goaltending options. | None |
| Feb. 1, 2025 | Skarek will start Sunday on the road versus the Panthers, Stefen Rosner of NHL.com reports. - Skarek will get the second half of a back-to-back after Ilya Sorokin took a 3-2 overtime win over the Lightning on Saturday. Sunday's start will be Skarek's first career NHL appearance, and it comes against the defending champions, who won a 5-1 game over the Panthers on Saturday. Skarek should be faded by fantasy managers Sunday given his inexperience and the difficulty of the opponent. | None |
| Jan. 27, 2025 | Skarek was recalled from AHL Bridgeport on Monday. - The Islanders moved Marcus Hogberg (upper body) to injured reserve in a corresponding move. Skarek has a 5-11-1 record with a 3.22 GAA and an .895 save percentage in 20 minor-league appearances this season. With the Islanders set to play four times in six days, there's a chance Skarek could make his NHL debut if Hogberg and Semyon Varlamov (lower body) remain unavailable. However, Ilya Sorokin will handle most of the starts. | None |
| Jan. 13, 2025 | Skarek was returned to AHL Bridgeport on Monday, per Stefen Rosner of NHL.com. - Skarek didn't suit up against Utah on Saturday, serving as the No. 2 option behind Marcus Hogberg while Ilya Sorokin (illness) was unavailable. The decision to return Skarek to the minors should be an indication that Sorokin will at least be healthy enough to fill the backup role when the Islanders face off with the Senators on Tuesday. | None |
| Jan. 11, 2025 | Skarek was recalled from AHL Bridgeport on Saturday. - Skarek was recalled as the Islanders' emergency goaltender because Ilya Sorokin (illness) is unavailable. Skarek, who's yet to make his NHL debut, figures to backup Marcus Hogberg on Saturday in Utah. | None |
| Oct. 6, 2024 | Skarek hit the waiver wire Sunday, according to Elliotte Friedman of Sportsnet. - Skarek was a third-round draft pick by the Islanders in the 2018 NHL Entry Draft. The 24-year-old is unlikely to be claimed on waivers -- he has yet to post a save percentage above .900 or a GAA below 3.00 in his five years of AHL experience. Skarek went 7-22-6 with an .888 save percentage and a 3.23 GAA in 36 regular-season appearances with AHL Bridgeport in 2023-24. | None |
| April 19, 2024 | Skarek was recalled from AHL Bridgeport on Friday, per CapFriendly. - Skarek posted a lackluster 3.23 GAA and .888 save percentage in 36 AHL contests. The 24-year-old has yet to make his NHL debut. | None |
| Oct. 6, 2023 | The Islanders placed Skarek on waivers Friday, Elliotte Friedman of Sportsnet reports. - Skarek had a 3.37 GAA and an .892 save percentage in 38 AHL contests with Bridgeport in 2022-23. The 23-year-old hasn't made his NHL debut yet. | None |
| July 18, 2023 | Skarek inked a two-year, two-way contract with the Islanders on Tuesday. - Skarek posted a 15-16-3 record with a 3.37 GAA and an .892 save percentage in 38 games for AHL Bridgeport last season. The 23-year-old netminder will likely begin the 2023-24 campaign in the minors. | None |
| April 17, 2023 | Skarek was recalled from AHL Bridgeport on Monday, Andrew Gross of Newsday reports. - Skarek posted a 15-16-3 record in the minors this season with a 3.37 GAA and an .892 save percentage in 38 appearances. He will serve as the third goaltender for the Islanders in the postseason behind Ilya Sorokin and Semyon Varlamov. | None |
| Feb. 2, 2022 | Skarek was named goalie of the month for Bridgeport of the AHL, Andrew Gross of Newsday reports. - Skarek went 5-0-2 with a 1.98 GAA and .935 save percentage in seven games in January. Those numbers could make it easier for the Islanders to consider a trade of Semyon Varlamov at the NHL trade deadline. Varlamov and Ilya Sorokin have pretty much split the starting job over the past two seasons. However, with the Islanders still up against the salary cap, they could decide to move on from Varlamov and save his $5 million versus the cap next season. Skarek will likely be the backup to Sorokin if that's the case. | None |
