    • Adds power-play helper
      Drouin logged a power-play assist in Friday's 2-1 double-overtime loss to the Stars in Game 6.

      Advice: Drouin had a helper in all three of his playoff appearances, including two on the power play. The 29-year-old missed the first eight contests of the postseason due to a lower-body injury, but that was his only extended absence of the campaign. Drouin had a career-high 56 points in 79 regular-season outings while playing on a one-year, $825,000 contract. It's safe to assume his next deal will be at a higher cap hit, though it's unclear if the Avalanche will have the space to bring him back in 2024-25. If not, he should have a significant audience in free agency. Rotowire.com Friday, 11:51 pm
       
    • Takes double-overtime loss
      Georgiev allowed two goals on 38 shots in Friday's 2-1 double-overtime loss to the Stars in Game 6.

      Advice: The Avalanche caught a break in the first overtime when a potential Stars goal was overturned for goaltender interference. There would be no rescue for Georgiev after Matt Duchene came back to haunt one of his former teams with a tally 11:42 into the second overtime. Georgiev went 6-5 with a 2.85 GAA and an .897 save percentage over 11 playoff contests, numbers roughly in line with his regular-season performance. After playing 143 games between the regular season and playoffs over the last two years, the Avalanche may be motivated to make sure the 28-year-old sees a smaller workload in 2024-25, though he should still be the primary starter entering the final year of his current contract.

    • Clinches series win
      Duchene scored the game-winning goal in Friday's 2-1 double-overtime win over the Avalanche in Game 6.

      Advice: Duchene was called for goaltender interference on a potential game-winner in the first overtime. That didn't dissuade him from sticking near the net, and he converted 11:42 into the second extra session after the puck popped loose from a scrum in front of the net. Through 13 playoff contests, Duchene has two goals, six points, 18 shots on net, 16 hits, 13 blocked shots and a plus-2 rating. He is filling in on a line with Jason Robertson and Joe Pavelski while Roope Hintz (upper body) recovers from an upper-body injury. Rotowire.com Friday, 11:27 pm
       
    • Tending twine Friday
      Georgiev will get the starting nod for Game 6 at home against the Stars on Friday.

      Advice: Georgiev wasn't very sharp in Game 5 but still managed to earn a win despite allowing three goals on 26 shots. He's registered an unsightly .880 save percentage through five games this series. Georgiev owns a 3.09 GAA and an .886 save percentage in 10 postseason appearances.

    • Adds helper
      Duchene logged an assist in Wednesday's 5-3 loss to the Avalanche in Game 5.

      Advice: Duchene has managed three helpers over five games in the second round, but his goal drought is up to seven contests. The 33-year-old center got the bump up to the top line, replacing Roope Hintz (upper body) in that spot as head coach Pete DeBoer elected to keep Wyatt Johnston alongside Jamie Benn. Duchene has a modest five points with 14 shots on net, 14 hits, 12 blocked shots and a plus-1 rating through 12 playoff outings. Rotowire.com Wednesday, 8:59 pm
       
    • Registers power-play assist
      Drouin notched a power-play assist, four hits and two PIM in Wednesday's 5-3 win over the Stars in Game 5.

      Advice: Drouin has a helper in each of his first two playoff contests this year. He was moved up to the top line Wednesday, though his helper was a primary assist on the first of Cale Makar's two goals in the game. Drouin should continue to see significant minutes as the Avalanche once again try to fend off elimination in Game 6 on Friday. Rotowire.com Wednesday, 8:35 pm
       
    • Nets go-ahead goal
      Mittelstadt scored a goal in Wednesday's 5-3 win over the Stars in Game 5.

      Advice: Mittelstadt put the Avalanche ahead for the first time in regulation in this series with his goal at 1:12 of the third period. The center has scored in back-to-back games and has three points over five second-round contests. For the playoffs, he's racked up three goals, six assists, 21 shots on net, 13 hits and a plus-1 rating over 10 appearances in a second-line role. Rotowire.com Wednesday, 8:29 pm
       
    • Grabs win Wednesday
      Georgiev stopped 23 of 26 shots in Wednesday's 5-3 win over the Stars in Game 5.

      Advice: Georgiev didn't have a lead to work with until Casey Mittelstadt put the Avalanche up 3-2 in the third period. Cale Makar tallied shortly after that, and Georgiev was able to guide the Avalanche to the win, keeping their season alive and forcing a Game 6 on Friday. The 28-year-old goalie is 6-4 over 10 playoff appearances, but he's given up 31 goals, including at least three markers in four of the five contests so far in the second round.

    • Tending twine in Game 5
      Georgiev will protect the road goal versus the Stars in Wednesday's Game 5, Tracey Myers of NHL.com reports.

      Advice: Georgiev has lost three straight games, allowing 10 goals on 85 shots in that span. Despite the slump, head coach Jared Bednar is sticking by his No. 1 goalie with the Avalanche's season on the line Wednesday. If Georgiev can pick up a win, the series will shift back to Colorado for Game 6 on Friday. Rotowire.com Wednesday, 4:35 pm
