  • Two-point effort Tuesday
    Zibanejad produced a power-play goal and a shorthanded assist Tuesday in a 4-3 win over the Capitals in Game 2.

    Advice: After finding the back of the net in the first period, Zibanejad helped set up K'Andre Miller for what proved to be the game-winner late in the second. Zibanejad is riding an active eight-game point streak extending back to the end of the regular season -- through two postseason contests, he's collected a goal and three points. He'll look to keep rolling on the road Friday in Game 3. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 8:15 am
     
  • Two points in Game 2
    Trocheck scored an even-strength goal and added a power-play assist during Tuesday's 4-3 win over the Capitals in Game 2 of the Rangers' first-round series.

    Advice: Both points came in the first period as the Rangers jumped out to an early 2-1 lead. Trocheck posted a career-high 77 points in the regular season, and he's stayed hot with a goal and three points through the first two games of the playoffs. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 8:13 am
     
  • Collects win Tuesday
    Saros allowed a goal on 18 shots in Tuesday's 4-1 win over the Canucks in Game 2.

    Advice: Saros was solid when called upon, but the Predators were also credited with 30 blocked shots to make his job easier. He's allowed four goals on 38 shots over two playoff contests so far. Saros will likely continue to see most, if not all, of the starts during the postseason, and he's likely to get more goal support while Thatcher Demko (undisclosed) is out of action for the Canucks. Game 3 is set for Friday in Nashville. Rotowire.com Tuesday, 11:09 pm
     
  • Tending twine in Game 2
    Saros will guard the road goal versus the Canucks on Tuesday in Game 2, Zach Gilchriest of the Predators' official site reports.

    Advice: Saros will look to overcome his Game 1 loss, in which he allowed three goals on 20 shots, including a pair of tallies in a 12-second span in the third period. The 29-year-old has lost all three of his games versus the Canucks this season, allowing a total of 11 goals. His Predators teammates may find more room for offense Tuesday with Thatcher Demko (undisclosed) out and Casey DeSmith slated to start for Vancouver. Rotowire.com Tuesday, 6:43 pm
     
  • Scores goal, assist in win
    Guentzel scored a goal on two shots and picked up a power-play assist in Monday's 5-3 Game 2 victory over the Islanders.

    Advice: Guentzel was also given a 10-minute misconduct late in the third period as the game got a little chippy at the end. It was a strong bounce-back performance for the 29-year-old winger after having been held off the scoresheet in Game 1 while failing to record a shot for just the second time all season.

  • Goal, assist in Game 2 victory
    Domi tallied a goal and an assist in Monday's 3-2 win over the Bruins in Game 2.

    Advice: Domi got the Maple Leafs on the board midway through the first period, swiping a loose puck past Linus Ullmark to tie the game 1-1, before adding a second point with an assist on Auston Matthews' game-winning goal in the third. The 29-year-old Domi had a strong finish to the regular season, tallying 15 points (two goals, 13 assists) in his final 17 contests while skating alongside Matthews on Toronto's top line.

  • Picks up helper
    Trocheck garnered an assist in Sunday's 4-1 victory over the Capitals in Game 1.

    Advice: Trocheck has gone 11 games without a goal dating back to March 26 versus the Flyers. During his slump, the 30-year-old center has managed six helpers, including two with the man advantage. Look for the veteran center to continue filling a second-line role while also featuring with the No. 1 power-play unit. Rotowire.com Monday, 8:21 am
     
  • Can't hold lead in Game 1
    Saros stopped 17 of 20 shots in Sunday's 4-2 loss to the Canucks in Game 1.

    Advice: Saros had a 2-1 lead to work with to begin the third period, but he gave up goals to Quinn Hughes and Dakota Joshua in a span of 12 seconds. The Predators didn't recover from that, sending Saros to his third loss in his last four outings. The 29-year-old had his worst numbers as an NHL regular with a 2.86 GAA and a .906 save percentage over 64 outings this season, though he still went 35-24-5. The Predators will likely roll with Saros throughout the postseason despite his lackluster play of late. Rotowire.com Sunday, 10:56 pm
     
  • Adds helper
    Boser recorded an assist in Sunday's 4-2 win over the Predators in Game 1.

    Advice: Boeser was reportedly dealing with an undisclosed injury late in the regular season, but it was minor enough to avoid costing him a playoff game. The winger had a career year with 40 goals, 73 points, 204 shots on net and a plus-23 rating over 81 appearances. Boeser will likely maintain a top-six role throughout the Canucks' postseason run.
