Don't fret it. That slimey stuff is just collagen. You can scrape it off with your knife. or partially freeze and peel off then slice into steaks. The so called blue skin is not slimey and can be cut off the same way you skin a fish. You tube has many videos on butchering. Handling of the deer should be thought of and taken care of before you pull the trigger or release the arrow.
