    • Game-time decision Saturday
      Per Bell Fraser of The Hockey News, Heinen (undisclosed) participated in the morning skate and will be a game-time decision at home versus Toronto on Saturday, according to coach Jim Montgomery.

      Advice: Heinen missed Game 6 with the injury. He skated with the second power-play unit to start the practice session, but was replaced late in practice by Justin Brazeau. Montgomery said that the team will see how Heinen is the rest of the day, before deciding on whether or not he will be in the lineup. Should Heinen not play, John Beecher will replace him in the lineup. Rotowire.com 4 minutes ago
       
    • Snags assist Friday
      Pettersson logged an assist in Friday's 1-0 win over the Predators in Game 6.

      Advice: Pettersson failed to score a goal in the first round, and he's now gone nine contests without a tally. He showed some life with an assist in three of the last four games, but the Canucks will hope for a lot more from one of their top players entering a more difficult second-round matchup with the Oilers. In addition to the three assists, Pettersson had eight shots on net, nine hits, seven blocked shots and a minus-2 rating over six appearances in the first round.

    • Earns helper in Game 6 win
      Boeser logged an assist, three shots on goal and four PIM in Friday's 1-0 win over the Predators in Game 6.

      Advice: Boeser was productive in the first round, picking up four goals, two assists, 16 shots on net and a plus-3 rating over six contests, highlighted by his hat trick in Game 4. The winger set up Pius Suter for the lone tally in Game 6 as well. Boeser will continue to be a key part of the Canucks' offense heading into a second-round matchup with the Oilers that could lead to high-scoring clashes. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 10:37 pm
       
    • Scores in Friday's win
      Suter scored a goal on five shots in Friday's 1-0 win over the Predators in Game 6.

      Advice: Suter's goal with 1:39 left in the third period was the only goal in the contest. That was also the series-clinching tally, setting up the Canucks for a second-round matchup with the Oilers. Suter scored twice on 14 shots and added six hits over six first-round appearances while filling a middle-six role. The 27-year-old is well regarded as a defensive forward, and he may be deployed in that nature frequently in the next round against a high-powered offense. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 10:31 pm
       
    • Clinches series with shutout
      Silovs posted a 28-save shutout in Friday's 1-0 win over the Predators in Game 6.

      Advice: Silovs was dialed in from the start, earning his first NHL shutout to secure a 4-2 series win for the Canucks. The 23-year-old has allowed just five goals on 80 shots over three appearances since taking over for Casey DeSmith in goal beginning with Game 4. If Silovs continues to operate as the starter in the second round, he'll find a much more challenging task ahead versus the Oilers. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 10:17 pm
       
    • Good to go Friday
      Schenn (illness) will play Friday in Game 6 against Vancouver, Nick Kieser of 102.5 ESPN Nashville reports.

      Advice: Schenn will return after missing Game 5 on Tuesday. The veteran blueliner has averaged 15:03 of ice time with 12 hits through four games this series. He'll skate in a second-pairing role Friday. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 3:43 pm
       
    • Unavailable Friday
      Smith (upper body) will not play Friday against the Canucks for Game 6.

      Advice: Smith is considered day-to-day, indicating he could return Sunday for Game 7 if Nashville avoids elimination. The 28-year-old has 12 hits and no points in five games this series. Juuso Parssinen will dress in Smith's absence for Game 6. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 3:40 pm
       
    • Returns to minors
      DiPietro was reassigned to AHL Providence on Friday, per Mark Divver of the New England Hockey Journal.

      Advice: DiPietro was summoned Tuesday so the Bruins would have a third goaltender on their playoff roster. He might be recalled ahead of Game 7 on Saturday against Toronto to continue to serve that function. DiPietro hasn't played for Boston in the regular season or playoffs in 2023-24, but he did record a 2.51 GAA and a .918 save percentage in 30 regular-season outings with Providence.

    • Good to play for Team Canada
      Guhle, who missed the final seven games of the regular season due to a head injury, will join Team Canada for the upcoming IIHF World Championship.

      Advice: Guhle finished the 2023-24 season with six goals, 22 points, 56 PIM, 116 hits and 178 blocks in 70 contests with Montreal. He served in a top-four capacity with the Canadiens, and the 22-year-old should act in a similar capacity for the franchise next campaign. In the meantime, Guhle will get in some extra high-level action during the international tournament before beginning his summer training. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 1:02 pm
