  • Deemed fine after Game 5
    Seguin (lower body) is considered fine after exiting Wednesday's Game 5 versus the Avalanche late in the third period, Lia Assimakopoulos of The Dallas Morning News reports.

    Advice: Seguin should be available for Friday's Game 6. The 32-year-old played on the third line Wednesday, but he could see more ice time than that role would suggest if Roope Hintz (upper body) is unable to suit up Friday. Rotowire.com Today, 3:01 pm
     
  • Exits late in Game 5
    Seguin sustained an apparent lower-body injury in the third period of Wednesday's Game 5 versus the Avalanche, Taylor Baird of NHL.com reports.

    Advice: Seguin had two shots on goal and a minus-2 rating in 16:37 of ice time Wednesday. The Stars didn't have an update on his status, which isn't a surprise given it occurred late in the third period. More information should be available prior to Friday's Game 6 in Colorado.

  • Picks up assist
    Frederic logged an assist, three shots on goal and three hits in Tuesday's 2-1 win over the Panthers in Game 5.

    Advice: Frederic hasn't scored a goal in seven games, and he's added a modest two assists in that span. The 26-year-old winger has seen a bump up into the top six while Brad Marchand (upper body) has been out. Frederic has five points, 17 shots on net, 49 hits, 20 PIM and a plus-6 rating over 12 playoff appearances. He'll likely drop back to the third line if Marchand is cleared to play in Friday's Game 6.

  • Slides assist Tuesday
    Coyle notched an assist, eight hits, two blocked shots and two PIM in Tuesday's 2-1 win over the Panthers in Game 5.

    Advice: Coyle set up Charlie McAvoy's second-period tally, which was the game-winner. With three points over five contests in the second round, Coyle has surpassed his production of two helpers over seven first-round outings versus the Maple Leafs. He's still not doing great overall, but he's added 56 hits, 23 blocked shots and an even plus-minus rating to his five points across 12 playoff appearances while holding down a top-six role.

  • Registers helper in win
    Seguin logged an assist, two shots on goal and a plus-2 rating in Monday's 5-1 win over the Avalanche in Game 4.

    Advice: Seguin has three goals and an assist during his three-game point streak, surpassing his three helpers during the first round versus Vegas. The 32-year-old forward could be called on for a larger role if Roope Hintz (upper body) can't suit up in Wednesday's Game 5. Seguin has seven points, 35 shots, 17 hits and a plus-8 rating over 11 playoff appearances. Rotowire.com Tuesday, 12:14 am
     
  • Scores twice in win
    Seguin scored two goals on five shots and went plus-2 in Saturday's 4-1 win over the Avalanche in Game 3.

    Advice: Seguin buried the go-ahead goal at 15:13 of the second period and added an empty-netter in the third. The 32-year-old went without a goal in the first eight games of the playoffs, but he's now scored three times over the last two contests. He's at six points, 33 shots on net, 16 hits and a plus-6 rating through 10 postseason outings. Seguin was bothered by a lower-body injury late in the season, but his recent offensive success suggests that he has put that issue behind him. Rotowire.com Saturday, 11:04 pm
     
  • Nets shorthanded goal
    Seguin scored a shorthanded goal on three shots and blocked two shots in Thursday's 5-3 win over the Avalanche in Game 2.

    Advice: Seguin's shortie in the second period ended up being the game-winner. He buried the rebound from a Thomas Harley attempt. The goal was Seguin's first of the playoffs to go with three assists, 28 shots on net, 15 hits and a plus-4 rating over nine appearances. The 32-year-old should continue to see middle-six minutes as he looks to provide depth scoring for the Stars. Rotowire.com Thursday, 10:06 pm
     
  • Registers helper
    Frederic recorded an assist, six hits, 10 PIM and a plus-2 rating in Monday's 5-1 win over the Panthers in Game 1.

    Advice: Frederic helped out on Brandon Carlo's goal late in the second period. The 26-year-old Frederic is up to four points through eight playoff contests, solid work for a player in a third-line role with virtually no power-play time. He's added 34 hits, 10 PIM and a plus-7 rating. Frederic can offer solid play as a checking forward, but consistent offense is likely too much to ask of him. Rotowire.com Monday, 9:17 pm
     
  • Contributes helper in win
    Coyle logged an assist, seven hits, three blocked shots and a plus-2 rating in Monday's 5-1 win over the Panthers in Game 1.

    Advice: Coyle set up Brandon Carlo's tally late in the second period. The 32-year-old Coyle has been a bit quiet on offense during the playoffs, though that hasn't prevented him from being a physical force in a top-six role. The center has three assists, 13 shots on net, 34 hits, 16 blocked shots and a plus-1 rating this postseason. Rotowire.com Monday, 9:15 pm
