    • Held off scoresheet in loss
      Trocheck failed to register a point in Monday's 4-1 loss to the Hurricanes in Game 5.

      Advice: After starting the postseason with a seven-game scoring streak, Trocheck has now been held without a point in back-to-back games. The 30-year-old forward did have three shots on net, one blocked shot and six hits in 21:58 of ice time. That amount of ice time was the most of any skater in the contest, which highlights the level of trust coach Peter Laviolette has in utilizing his second-line center in all situations. Trocheck has five goals and seven assists with a minus-1 rating in nine appearances this postseason. Rotowire.com Tuesday, 9:49 am
       
    • Earns helper in return
      Drouin notched an assist and went minus-2 in Monday's 5-1 loss to the Stars in Game 4.

      Advice: Drouin made his postseason debut Monday after recovering from a lower-body injury and helped out on Casey Mittelstadt's second-period tally. The 29-year-old Drouin added one shot on net and saw 19:12 of ice time, including 2:27 on the power play. With Valeri Nichushkin (suspension) done for the playoffs, Drouin could get shifted up to the top line for Wednesday's Game 5, which will see the Avalanche attempt to stave off elimination.

    • Good to go Monday
      Drouin (lower body) is expected to play Monday against the Stars, Evan Rawal of Colorado Hockey Now reports.

      Advice: Drouin will make his first appearance of the postseason after missing Colorado's first eight games. The 29-year-old recorded a career-high 56 points with 19 goals in 79 games during the regular season. He should slide into a top-six role. Rotowire.com Monday, 6:20 pm
       
    • Game-time call
      Drouin (lower body) will be a game-time decision for Monday's Game 4 versus Dallas, Kyle Fredrickson of The Denver Gazette reports.

      Advice: Drouin has yet to play during the playoffs due to a lower-body injury. He practiced with the No. 1 power-play unit during Monday's morning skate, suggesting he could be closer to probable than questionable for Game 4 against the Stars. He collected 19 goals and 56 points through 79 regular-season contests. Rotowire.com May 13, 10:07 am
       
    • Two points in loss
      Draisaitl scored a power-play goal on five shots, dished an assist and added two PIM in Sunday's 4-3 loss to the Canucks in Game 3.

      Advice: Draisaitl got the Oilers within a goal in the second period and helped out on Evan Bouchard's tally in the third, but it wasn't enough. The 28-year-old Draisaitl has multiple points in seven of eight playoff contests, with the lone exception being the Oilers' 1-0 win over the Kings in Game 4 of the first round. He's at seven goals, 11 helpers, 35 shots on net, eight PIM and a plus-3 rating this postseason. Rotowire.com May 12, 10:28 pm
       
    • Pulled from Sunday's loss
      Skinner allowed four goals on 15 shots in Sunday's 4-3 loss to the Canucks in Game 3.

      Advice: Skinner played the first two periods and saw a little more ice time late in the third after some gamesmanship from head coach Kris Knoblauch. Skinner's play remains a serious concern -- the Canucks have fired 58 shots at him over three contests, but he's let in 12 goals while losing two of those games. The Oilers were able to cover the 25-year-old in the first round, but they've had less success in that regard against the Canucks. Per Daniel Nugent-Bowman of The Athletic, Knoblauch wouldn't commit to sticking with Skinner for Game 4 on Tuesday. Calvin Pickard made three saves in Sunday's contest, but veteran Jack Campbell could also be an option should the Oilers get desperate in the next week. Rotowire.com May 12, 10:22 pm
       
    • Guarding cage Sunday
      Skinner will get the starting nod at home against Vancouver on Sunday, Thomas Drance of The Athletic reports.

      Advice: Skinner helped tie the series at 1-1 by stopping 16 shots in Friday's Game 2 victory. He's struggled so far against the Canucks, yielding eight goals on 43 shots in two contests. Skinner has won five of his seven postseason starts despite registering a lackluster .888 save percentage in the process. Rotowire.com May 12, 6:07 pm
       
    • Scores lone goal in Game 3 loss
      Rantanen scored a goal on four shots in Saturday's 4-1 loss to the Stars in Game 3.

      Advice: Rantanen tied the game at 1-1 in the second period, but the Avalanche couldn't build on his goal. The winger was held off the scoresheet for the first time in the playoffs in Game 2, but he bounced back well. He's produced three goals, nine assists, 21 shots on net, 14 hits, 11 blocked shots and a plus-4 rating over eight postseason appearances in a top-line role. Rotowire.com May 11, 11:44 pm
