So ive heard that Doubling Season and Skullbriar, the Walking Grave dont work together...something about counters being "placed" on skullbriar...thoughts?

Wherever you've heard that, they were mistaken. The effect in this case is a triggered ability. It triggers and puts counters or places counters on skullbriar, "puts" and "places" are the same thing. So it will place 2 counters on skullbriar.

bcurran is correct. Doubling Season will double the number of counters placed onto Skullbriar, the Walking Grave by his first ability, but has nothing to do with the counters while changing zones, since the counters aren't added or removed in this process.

Counters are placed on Skullbriar due to his first ability. Whenever he deals combat damage to a player, he gets two counters instead of one due to Doubling Season .
Doubling Season has no effect on the second ability because the counters "remain" on Skullbriar. They are not placed or removed.
