    • Consecutive losses to open series
      Skinner stopped 25 of 28 shots in Monday's 4-1 loss to Florida in Game 2 of the Stanley Cup Finals.

      Advice: Skinner didn't have much support in front of him in Game 2 -- the Oilers had seven shots on goal through the first two frames. It was only the second time in his last 10 outings that Skinner has allowed more than two goals in a contest. The 25-year-old has an .886 save percentage through two games in this series, though Edmonton hasn't been able to provide the netminder with offensive support (one goal over two games). The last time Skinner lost consecutive contests in the postseason, he rebounded with three straight wins -- the Oilers will need that trend to continue when they head back to Edmonton for Game 3 on Thursday. Skinner is 11-7 with a 2.51 GAA and an .896 save percentage through 18 playoff appearances. Rotowire.com Tuesday, 2:11 am
       
    • Light workload in Game 2
      Bobrovsky made 18 saves on 19 shots in Monday's 4-1 victory over the Oilers in Game 2 of the Stanley Cup Finals.

      Advice: Bobrovsky is now two wins away from helping the Panthers raise the Stanley Cup for the first time in franchise history. The 35-year-old has won five consecutive contests while not allowing more than two goals in a game during that span. Bob has been beaten by Edmonton only once in the series, making a total of 50 saves on 51 shots. The Russian netminder has lost consecutive outings just once this postseason, so it'll be an uphill battle for the Oilers going forward. Bobrovsky is 14-5 with a 2.02 GAA and a .916 save percentage through 19 postseason appearances. Rotowire.com Tuesday, 2:09 am
       
    • No update after game
      Barkov suffered an apparent injury during Monday's Game 2 win over Edmonton. There was no update on his status after the game, Elliotte Friedman of Sportsnet reports.

      Advice: Barkov took a hit up high from Leon Draisaitl in the third period and went straight back to the locker room. Barkov had two shots on goal in 17:47 of ice time before exiting the contest. He logged two assists in Game 1 and has 19 points through 19 postseason contests. There should be an update on his status before Game 3 on Thursday. Rotowire.com Monday, 9:09 pm
       
    • Game-time decision
      Carrick (undisclosed) will be a game-time decision Monday in Game 2 versus Florida, according to Ryan Rishaug of TSN.

      Advice: Carrick participated in Monday's morning skate, so it's unclear if he's dealing with an injury or if his spot in the lineup is a coach's decision. He has been scratched for three of Edmonton's last four playoff outings, including Game 1 of the Stanley Cup Finals on Saturday. Carrick has one assist, four shots on goal and 29 hits in nine outings this postseason. If he plays, Corey Perry might be a healthy scratch. Rotowire.com Monday, 9:33 am
       
    • Slated to defend cage in Game 2
      Skinner is expected to tend the road twine against the Panthers in Game 2 on Monday.

      Advice: Skinner gave up just two goals in Game 1, his eighth time allowing two or fewer goals in the Oilers' last nine contests, but registered a subpar .882 save percentage after facing a mere 17 shots. Edmonton has allowed more than 25 shots in only two of those nine contests, so fantasy managers should expect Skinner to continue facing a light workload. Rotowire.com Monday, 8:07 am
       
    • Headed to Switzerland
      Merela signed a one-year contract with SC Bern of Switzerland's National League on Monday, per Eduardo A. Encina of the Tampa Bay Times.

      Advice: Merela is eligible for restricted free agency in July, so Tampa Bay could retain his NHL rights by extending a qualifying offer. The 25-year-old forward produced one goal, 17 shots and 32 hits in 19 regular-season appearances with the Lightning during the 2023-24 campaign. Merela also registered 15 goals and 34 points across 55 regular-season outings for AHL Syracuse this past season before adding three goals in eight playoff contests.

    • Set to start Monday
      Bobrovsky is slated to be between the pipes at home for Game 2 against the Oilers on Monday, George Richards of Florida Hockey Now reports.

      Advice: Bobrovsky was phenomenal in Game 1, stopping all 32 shots he faced to record his second playoff shutout. The netminder is currently riding a four-game winning streak during which he posted a 1.24 GAA and .953 save percentage. Considering the Russian hasn't sat a game out since the regular-season finale versus Toronto on April 16, he figures to remain the Panthers' preferred option in the crease the rest of the way.

    • Inks two-way deal
      Laferriere signed a one-year, two-way contract with the Blues on Sunday.

      Advice: Laferriere tallied seven goals and 25 points in 68 games with AHL Springfield last season. He has yet to make his NHL debut. The 23-year-old forward will continue serving as organizational depth. Rotowire.com Sunday, 1:28 pm
       
    • Garners helper in Game 1 win
      Montour logged an assist and two hits in Saturday's 3-0 win over the Oilers in Game 1.

      Advice: Montour had the secondary helper on Evan Rodrigues' second-period tally. Through 18 playoff contests, Montour has 10 points, 38 shots on net, 38 hits and 28 blocked shots while playing in a top-four role. His offense has dipped later in the postseason -- he has just two assists over his last 10 outings. Rotowire.com Saturday, 8:55 pm
