  • Helps out on power play
    Draisaitl logged a power-play assist and three shots on goal in Monday's 3-2 win over the Canucks in Game 7.

    Advice: Draisaitl has yet to be held off the scoresheet through two rounds of the playoffs. He kept the streak alive with a secondary helper on Ryan Nugent-Hopkins' second-period tally, which was the game-winner. Draisaitl is up to eight goals, 16 assists, 12 power-play points, 45 shots on net and a plus-2 rating through 12 playoff contests. Rotowire.com Today, 9:15 pm
     
  • Tallies in Game 7 win
    Hyman scored a goal on five shots and blocked three shots in Monday's 3-2 win over the Canucks in Game 7.

    Advice: Hyman went cold in the middle of the second round, but he had a goal in each of the last two games to bounce back at a good time. The 31-year-old winger leads the playoffs with 11 tallies, and he's added 50 shots on net, 30 hits and a plus-6 rating over 12 appearances while consistently playing in a top-line role.

  • One of each in win
    Nugent-Hopkins scored a power-play goal on three shots, added an assist and blocked three shots in Monday's 3-2 win over the Canucks in Game 7.

    Advice: Nugent-Hopkins stepped up late in the second round with five points over the last two games to help the Oilers advance. The 31-year-old is up to four goals, 12 assists, 17 shots on net, 21 hits and a plus-3 rating through 12 playoff outings. He should begin the Western Conference Finals on the first line alongside Connor McDavid and Zach Hyman. Rotowire.com Today, 9:06 pm
     
  • Not playing Monday
    Henrique (ankle) will not suit up for Game 7 against Vancouver on Monday, Ryan Rishaug of TSN reports.

    Advice: Henrique will miss his fifth straight contest Monday, and he dressed in just one game this series. The veteran forward scored two points in Game 1 against the Kings during the first round but has not scored a point in five straight appearances. His status for the next round -- if Edmonton wins Game 7 against the Canucks -- is unclear at this time. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 4:53 pm
     
  • Keeps rolling with two helpers
    Draisaitl produced two assists, two hits, two PIM and a plus-2 rating in Saturday's 5-1 win over the Canucks in Game 6.

    Advice: Draisaitl set up the Oilers' first and last goals, scored by Dylan Holloway and Evander Kane, respectively. The pair of helpers extended Draisaitl's playoff point streak to 11 contests, during which he has eight goals and 15 assists. He's added 42 shots on net, 10 PIM and a plus-2 rating this postseason. Draisaitl also became the third-fastest player in NHL history to 100 playoff points, doing so in just 60 appearances. Only Wayne Gretzky (46 games) and Mario Lemieux (50 games) did it faster.

  • Trio of helpers in win
    McDavid notched three assists, two shots on goal, two PIM, two hits and a plus-3 rating in Saturday's 5-1 win over the Canucks in Game 6.

    Advice: McDavid responded to his second scoreless outing of the playoffs with a showcase of playmaking. He set up goals by Zach Hyman, Evan Bouchard and Ryan Nugent-Hopkins as the Oilers took control Saturday and forced a Game 7 on Monday. McDavid is up to 21 points (two goals, 19 assists) with 31 shots on net, 25 hits and a plus-5 rating over 11 playoff appearances. He hasn't gone multiple games in a row without a point since a three-game slump from Nov. 6-11. Rotowire.com Saturday, 8:32 pm
     
  • Scores 10th goal of postseason
    Hyman scored a goal on four shots and went plus-2 in Saturday's 5-1 win over the Canucks in Game 6.

    Advice: Hyman snapped a three-game slump with his second-period tally, which ended up being the game-winner. It was perhaps a short-term regression for the winger, who scored nine times over the first six contests this postseason before the skid. He's at 10 goals, two assists, 45 shots on net, 29 hits and a plus-5 rating through 11 appearances in the playoffs. Rotowire.com Saturday, 8:23 pm
     
  • Collects three points in Game 6
    Nugent-Hopkins scored a goal, dished two assists, added two hits and went plus-2 in Saturday's 5-1 win over the Canucks in Game 6.

    Advice: Nugent-Hopkins earned his first multi-point effort in five outings. He assisted on goals by Zach Hyman and Evan Bouchard in the second period before scoring one of his own in the third. Through 11 playoff contests, Nugent-Hopkins has three goals, 11 assists, 14 shots on net, 20 hits and a plus-3 rating. He's played the last two games alongside Connor McDavid, which gives Nugent-Hopkins some significant DFS upside if he stays in that spot for Game 7 on Monday. Rotowire.com Saturday, 8:21 pm
     
  • Unavailable Saturday
    Henrique (ankle) will not play Saturday against the Canucks, Jason Gregor of Sports 1440 Edmonton reports.

    Advice: Henrique has missed all but one game this series, but it does sound like he's nearing a return. However, Edmonton is facing elimination in Game 6 on Saturday. Henrique has two points with four shots on goals through six postseason contests. Should the Oilers force a Game 7, he'll have until Monday to get healthy enough to play. Rotowire.com Friday, 9:26 pm
