    • In contention Saturday
      Hintz (upper body) may be available to face Edmonton in Game 2 on Saturday after coach Pete DeBoer told reporters Hintz was "skating and possible for tomorrow," Brian Rea of Bally Sports Southwest reports.

      Advice: Hintz has already missed the team's last three games due to his upper-body issue but appears to be nearing a return to action. Prior to getting hurt, the 27-year-old center tallied two goals on 13 shots and four assists in his previous 11 postseason contests. Once cleared to play, Hintz figures to slot back into a first-line role in addition to linking up with the No. 1 power-play unit. Rotowire.com 57 minutes ago
       
    • Steady in Game 1 win
      Skinner stopped 31 of 33 shots in Thursday's 3-2 double-overtime win over the Stars in Game 1 of the Western Conference Finals.

      Advice: Skinner didn't face more than 24 shots in any of his five appearances in the second round versus the Canucks, but the Stars predictably were more active. The 25-year-old was up to the challenge, earning his third straight win. He's allowed just five goals in that span. Skinner's back in the No. 1 job for the Oilers, so he should be expected to start Game 2 on Saturday. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 9:55 pm
       
    • Most ice time of any forward
      Panarin didn't register a point in Wednesday's 3-0 loss to the Panthers in Game 1.

      Advice: Panarin was on the ice for almost 25 minutes in Wednesday's loss, but he was unable to provide any offensive production for New York. It's been a tough stretch for the star winger -- over his last four games Panarin only has two helpers and a minus-7 rating. The 32-year-old is up to four goals, seven assists and a minus-5 rating in 11 contests so far this postseason. Panarin and the Rangers will attempt to avoid falling into a two-game deficit in the series when they're back in action for Game 2 on Friday. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 10:55 am
       
    • Not playing Thursday
      Hintz (upper body) will not be in the lineup for Game 1 of the Western Conference Finals versus Edmonton on Thursday, Stars radio analyst Bruce LeVine reports.

      Advice: Coach Peter DeBoer is hopeful Hintz will be healthy enough to return for Game 2 on Saturday. Hintz will miss his third straight game after he was injured during Game 4 of the Stars' second-round series versus Colorado. Hintz has two goals and six points in 11 playoff games this year.

    • Between pipes for Game 1
      Skinner will tend the twine on the road in Game 1 of the Western Conference Finals against the Stars on Thursday, Jason Gregor of Sports 1440 Edmonton reports.

      Advice: Skinner has faced less than 20 shots in each of his last four appearances, posting a 3-1 record to go with a 2.66 GAA and .848 save percentage over that stretch. Despite being benched for Games 4 and 5 of the Oilers' second-round series versus Vancouver, the 25-year-old backstop was able to reclaim the starting role from Calvin Pickard for the final two games of the best-of-seven series. Skinner will likely remain the preferred choice in net for Edmonton during the Western Conference Finals. Rotowire.com Wednesday, 9:16 am
       
    • Nabs Game 7 win
      Skinner stopped 15 of 17 shots in Monday's 3-2 win over the Canucks in Game 7.

      Advice: Skinner earned back-to-back wins after a two-game benching, but he's still not showing that much to inspire confidence. In those wins, he stopped 29 of 32 shots, a product of the Canucks' lackluster offense more than Skinner's own quality of play. Nonetheless, he's likely done enough to regain the starting job heading into the Western Conference Finals, which begin in Dallas on Thursday. Rotowire.com Monday, 9:04 pm
       
    • Gets starting nod for Game 7
      Skinner will be between the road pipes for Monday's Game 7 clash with the Canucks, Daniel Nugent-Bowman of The Athletic reports.

      Advice: Skinner returned from a two-game benching to stop 14 of 15 shots in a Game 6 win. In each of his last three appearances, the netminder has faced less than 20 shots, though that's not surprising since the Canucks have averaged a league-worst 21.1 shots per game in the postseason. If he can secure the win Monday, Skinner should be the presumptive starter moving forward. Rotowire.com Monday, 10:58 am
       
    • Remains day-to-day
      Hintz (upper body) is considered day-to-day ahead of Game 1 of the Western Conference Finals on Thursday, per Lia Assimakopoulos of The Dallas Morning News.

      Advice: Hintz sat out the final two contests of Dallas' second-round series against Colorado. He has recorded two goals, six points, 13 shots on net and 15 hits through 11 playoff outings. Hintz skated Monday, but his availability for the start of the next round of the postseason remains unclear at this time. Rotowire.com Monday, 10:46 am
       
    • Lightly tested in win
      Skinner stopped 14 of 15 shots in Saturday's 5-1 win over the Canucks in Game 6.

      Advice: Skinner was benched for the previous two games, but he was back between the pipes with the Oilers' season on the line. The Canucks came out flat, leaving Skinner with little work to do as he snagged the win and forced Game 7. The 25-year-old is 6-3 in the playoffs, but he's given up three or more goals in six of his appearances. Securing the win Saturday makes it likely he'll start in the win-or-go-home contest Monday in Vancouver. Rotowire.com Saturday, 8:13 pm
