Skjei scored two goals on seven shots in Saturday's 7-4 win over the Blue Jackets.

He also added a blocked shot and a plus-four rating. Skjei found the back of the net in the second and third periods, helping Carolina dig out of a 4-0 hole and giving the blueliner back-to-back multi-point performances. On the season, however, he has only three goals and nine points through 31 games.
