    • Traveling with team
      Matthews (illness) will join the Maple Leafs when they travel to Boston for Game 5 on Tuesday but remains questionable after head coach Sheldon Keefe told reporters, "We're hopeful he's available and feeling good and back to himself," per ESPN's Kristen Shilton.

      Advice: Matthews has scored just one goal in his last six contests despite having racked up 34 shots on net and adding two assists over that stretch. Without the world-class center at practice Tuesday, Toronto shifted Max Domi to center in addition to slotting him into Matthews' spot on the No. 1 power-play unit. If Matthews can get even close to 100 percent, he should reclaim both those roles heading into Tuesday's must-win game for Toronto. Rotowire.com Today, 9:36 am
       
    • Not practicing Monday
      Matthews (illness), who was pulled from Game 4 against the Bruins on Saturday, was not in attendance for Monday's practice session, Joshua Kloke of The Athletic reports.

      Advice: Matthews has produced points in just one of his last six appearances, though he racked up one goal and two helpers in that contest. The 26-year-old center's absence shouldn't come as a significant surprise considering he is trying to recover from a seemingly long-term illness that he tried to push through in Game 4. Without Matthews in the lineup, John Tavares could be given the first-line center role while Max Domi would likely move up to the No. 1 power-play unit. At this point, Matthews should be considered questionable ahead of Game 5 on Tuesday. Rotowire.com Today, 8:05 am
       
    • Third straight win
      Georgiev allowed one goal on 27 shots in Sunday's 5-1 Game 4 win over the Jets.

      Advice: Georgiev allowed a first-period goal on the fifth shot of the game but then kicked aside the next 22 shots to keep the Jets off the scoreboard. After a poor performance in Game 1, Georgiev has allowed only five goals on 77 shots for a .935 save percentage in the last three games. The Avalanche lead the series 3-1 and would move on to the second round with a Game 5 win Tuesday, when the series shifts back to Winnipeg. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 5:10 pm
       
    • Tending twine in Game 4
      Georgiev will protect the home net Sunday in Game 4 against Winnipeg, Kyle Fredrickson of The Denver Gazette reports.

      Advice: Georgiev has stopped 50 of 54 shots over the last two games, winning both following a disastrous showing in Game 1 versus the Jets in which he surrendered seven goals. With a victory in Sunday's contest, the Avalanche would take a 3-1 series lead back to Winnipeg for Game 5 on Tuesday. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 11:10 am
       
    • One of each in Game 4
      Marchand scored a goal on two shots, dished an assist, added two hits and blocked three shots in Saturday's 3-1 win over the Maple Leafs in Game 4.

      Advice: Marchand's power-play tally in the second period was the game-winner, and he also set up David Pastrnak on a key insurance tally late in the same frame. The 35-year-old Marchand has been the story of the series so far, racking up three goals, five assists, 14 shots on net, 11 hits and a plus-2 rating through four contests. He'll look to lead the Bruins into the second round if they can win back at home in Tuesday's Game 5. Rotowire.com Saturday, 8:18 pm
       
    • Pulled from game due to illness
      Matthews was pulled from Saturday's Game 4 due to the illness he's been dealing with in recent days, Joshua Kloke of The Athletic reports.

      Advice: Matthews didn't play in the third period, and head coach Sheldon Keefe explained that the Maple Leafs' doctors pulled the world-class center from the contest. The 26-year-old Matthews will have an extra day to recover before Tuesday's must-win Game 5 in Boston. Rotowire.com Saturday, 8:16 pm
       
    • Exits Game 4
      Matthews (undisclosed) won't return to Saturday's Game 4 versus the Bruins.

      Advice: Matthews reportedly was ill during Game 3 on Wednesday, per Mark Masters of TSN, but it's unclear if his exit from Game 4 is related. Matthews should be considered day-to-day ahead of Tuesday's Game 5, pending an update from the Maple Leafs. Rotowire.com Saturday, 7:24 pm
       
    • Nets lone goal in loss
      Doughty scored a goal and added 12 PIM in Friday's 6-1 loss to the Oilers in Game 3.

      Advice: Doughty got the Kings on the board in the second period, but they weren't able to muster a rally. His slashing penalty in the first also led to the first of the Oilers' three power-play markers. Doughty's offense (two goals, one assist, five shots on net) has been fine in the playoffs, but he's also gone minus-2 with 12 PIM, three hits and three blocked shots over three contests in the first round.

    • Tallies in Game 3 loss
      Toffoli scored a goal on two shots and added four hits in Friday's 6-2 loss to the Avalanche in Game 3.

      Advice: Toffoli snapped a three-game pointless slump with his second-period marker. He's struggled to generate offense in the playoffs, and the Jets' lack of depth scoring has become a problem as they trail the Avalanche 2-1 in the series following Friday's loss. Toffoli has managed five shots on net, seven hits and a minus-2 rating through three playoff appearances. Rotowire.com Friday, 10:57 pm
