I think the have the opportunity, but they are very late to the game.
I used Skype for 6 years for work related stuff, and it wasn't great in terms of chat. Slack is WORLDS better. But Skype works GREAT for my interactions with family. The use cases are extremely different.
My preference would be to keep the current Skype as-is, or maybe even simplify it, and also add a new "Skype For Teams" product.
