    • Gathers helper in Game 1
      Robertson posted an assist, two shots on goal and two blocked shots in Thursday's 3-2 double-overtime loss to the Oilers in Game 1.

      Advice: Robertson still hasn't scored since Game 5 of the first round, but he's made up for it with eight helpers over his last seven contests. The winger is at 13 points, 28 shots on net, 23 hits, 19 blocked shots and a minus-2 rating through 14 playoff contests. Robertson continues to hold down a top-six role, and his increased physical play helps bolster his value in DFS formats. Rotowire.com 58 minutes ago
       
    • 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.

    • 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
       
    • Garners power-play helper
      Makar logged a power-play assist, two shots on goal and three blocked shots in Friday's 2-1 double-overtime loss to the Stars in Game 6.

      Advice: Makar finished the postseason with five goals, 10 assists, 36 shots on net and 23 blocks over 11 contests. The 25-year-old defenseman also had a career-high 90 points in 77 regular-season outings. Makar's brilliance on the blue line remains elite, and he's a finalist for the Norris Trophy once again after a stellar campaign. Makar should continue to be a top-three fantasy defenseman in 2024-25 with an Avalanche team that will have its core intact despite going into the offseason with nine pending unrestricted free agents among the team's skaters.

    • Eliminated from playoffs
      Swayman made 26 saves in a 2-1 loss to the Panthers on Friday in Game 6.

      Advice: Swayman stood tall in the crease Friday, but his valiant effort wasn't enough as the Panthers eliminated the Bruins in a heart-wrenching loss. Despite the defeat, the 25-year-old netminder stopped 26 of 28 shots, showcasing his poise under playoff pressure. Over six second-round contests, Swayman posted a solid .917 save percentage and 2.86 GAA, indicating his consistent high-level performance down the stretch. The future is bright for Swayman, though he might once again split time with Linus Ullmark, who has one campaign left on his contract, during the 2024-25 regular season.

    • Guarding cage Friday
      Swayman will get the starting nod for Game 6 at home against the Panthers on Friday, Tom Gulitti of NHL.com reports.

      Advice: Swayman will make his 11th consecutive start Friday. He's won five of his previous 10 contests while posting a .929 save percentage over that span. However, he's registered a 3.03 GAA and a .915 save percentage this series against Florida. Swayman helped fend off elimination with a Game 5 win by stopping 28 of 29 shots.

    • Still missing Friday
      Hintz (upper body) will remain unavailable for Game 6 versus Colorado on Friday, Corey Masisak of The Denver Post reports.

      Advice: Hintz will be out of action for his second consecutive game due to his upper-body issue. Coach Peter DeBoer told reporters he was hopeful the 27-year-old center would be healthy in time for Game 7, if necessary. While Hintz has scored just one goal in his last seven outings, he has chipped in four helpers, including two with the man advantage. With Hintz out, Matt Duchene figures to continue anchoring the first line alongside Jason Robertson and Joe Pavelski. Rotowire.com Friday, 10:36 am
       
    • Loses Game 5 late
      Pickard allowed three goals on 35 shots in Thursday's 3-2 loss to the Canucks in Game 5.

      Advice: Pickard allowed a goal in each period, including J.T. Miller's game-winner in the final minute of the third. While it wasn't a bad start, Pickard is now 1-1 with five goals allowed on 56 shots over his two playoff starts. The 32-year-old netminder has offered a bit more stability for the Oilers, but it's unclear if he'll again get the nod in Saturday's must-win Game 6. If not, head coach Kris Knoblauch could turn back to Stuart Skinner with the season on the line. Rotowire.com Thursday, 10:57 pm
       
    • In goal for Game 5
      Pickard will get the starting nod in Game 5 on the road against Vancouver on Thursday, Derek Van Diest of NHL.com reports.

      Advice: Pickard stopped 19 of 21 shots faced in Game 4, posting a .905 save percentage and a 2.00 GAA. While the 32-year-old backstop is making his second straight start, any stumbles by Pickard could see Stuart Skinner reclaim his spot as the No. 1 netminder for Edmonton.
