    • Questionable for Saturday
      Nylander (undisclosed) missed Friday's practice, putting his availability for Game 1 against Boston on Saturday in question, per Joshua Kloke of The Athletic.

      Advice: Nylander set a new career high of 98 points and matched his personal best of 40 goals while playing in all 82 regular-season games. The Maple Leafs might experiment with having Auston Matthews, Mitchell Marner and William Nylander all on separate lines in an effort to spread their offense, so Nylander's absence would throw a significant wrench in that plan. If he can't play in Game 1, Noah Gregor, who is otherwise projected to be a healthy scratch, might serve in a bottom-six capacity. Rotowire.com Today, 11:53 am
       
    • Practicing Friday
      Cirelli (rest) was at practice Friday, according to Gabby Shirley of Bally Sports Florida.

      Advice: Cirelli was given the night off Wednesday, as the Lightning had already clinched their spot in the postseason. Cirelli hit the 20-goal mark for the first time in his career this season. He ended the season with 25 assists and 45 points in 79 appearances. Cirelli is expected to center the second line, between Steven Stamkos and Brandon Hagel, when the Lightning face the Panthers on Sunday in Game 1. Rotowire.com Today, 8:29 am
       
    • Leaves Thursday's game
      Drouin (undisclosed) left Thursday's game versus the Oilers, and head coach Jared Bednar did not provide an update on the forward's status following the contest, Evan Rawal of Colorado Hockey Now reports.

      Advice: Drouin left the game late in the second period and didn't play in the third. The Avalanche have generally had decent luck keeping players healthy down the stretch, but the timing of this injury is unfortunate. It's unclear if Drouin will be ready to suit up for Game 1 of the Avalanche's first-round series versus the Jets on Sunday. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 9:40 pm
       
    • Resting Thursday
      Hyman (rest) will not play Thursday versus the Avalanche, according to Oilers play-by-by announcer Jack Michaels.

      Advice: Edmonton is focused on resting key players for the postseason, including Hyman. The 31-year-old figures to be back in a top-six role for Game 1 of the playoffs. Hyman provided 77 points in 80 regular-season contests, including a career-high 54 goals. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 5:23 pm
       
    • Back after night off
      Guentzel (rest) retook his spot on the Canes' top line during practice ahead of Saturday's matchup with the Islanders, Walt Ruff of the Hurricanes' official site reports.

      Advice: Guentzel is riding an eight-game point streak during which he's notched six goals and seven helpers, including five power-play points. In 67 combined games for the Penguins and Hurricanes, the elite winger has racked up 77 points in 67 contests while reaching the 30-goal threshold for the third straight campaign.

    • Back at practice
      Aho (rest) returned to practice Friday ahead of Saturday's clash with the Islanders, Walt Ruff of the Hurricanes' official site reports.

      Advice: Aho went on a heater in his last 15 outings of the regular season, racking up 11 goals and 10 assists, including seven power-play points. After sitting out one game to prepare for the playoffs, Aho will rejoin Jake Guentzel and Seth Jarvis on the first line in addition to linking up with the No. 1 power-play unit against the Islanders on Saturday.

    • Secures win over Sabres
      Bobrovsky made 29 saves while conceding two goals in a 3-2 overtime victory over Buffalo on Saturday.

      Advice: Bobrovsky ends the regular season having gone undefeated in regulation over his final four appearances. During that stretch, the veteran backstop went 3-0-1 with a 1.22 GAA and two shutouts. Look for Bobrovsky to see all of the starts once the Panthers' first-round series against the Lightning starts Sunday. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 6:43 am
       
    • Won't play Wednesday
      Cirelli is not on the ice for warmups and won't play Wednesday versus the Maple Leafs, Erik Erlendsson of LightningInsider.com reports.

      Advice: Cirelli missed a game earlier in April due to an upper-body injury, so it's possible the Lightning have decided to give him extra rest ahead of the playoffs. He is a key defensive center for the team, and there's no reason to think he'll miss Game 1 of the Lightning's first-round series versus the Panthers. Rotowire.com Wednesday, 3:38 pm

      Advice: Thompson won't be an option for Team USA at the 2024 IIHF World Championship, but the injury won't impact his offseason training. The 26-year-old forward accounted for 29 goals, 56 points, 246 shots on net and 79 hits in 71 games during the 2023-24 campaign. Rotowire.com Tuesday, 12:48 pm
