  • Nets lone goal in loss
    Marchment scored a goal on two shots and added five hits in Sunday's 2-1 loss to the Oilers in Game 6.

    Advice: Marchment batted home a pass from Tyler Seguin while crashing the net in the third period. That goal briefly gave the Stars hope for a comeback, but a tying goal never materialized. Marchment had three goals and two assists over 13 playoff outings, though it's unclear if he had any lingering effects from an undisclosed injury he suffered in the first round. The 28-year-old winger has two years left on his current contract, so it's expected he'll around to provide grit and depth scoring in a middle-six role for the Stars in 2024-25.

  • Extends goal streak in win
    Bennett potted his sixth goal of the postseason in Saturday's 2-1 series-clinching win over New York in Game 6.

    Advice: Bennett opened the scoring in the first period after being set up by Evan Rodrigues. Bennett added four shots, three hits, one block and a plus-1 rating in 15:27 of ice time Saturday night. The 27-year-old has elevated his game at a crucial point of the postseason -- he has goals in three straight contests and he finished this series with six points in as many games. Bennett is up to six goals, four assists and a plus-3 rating through 12 playoff appearances. Rotowire.com Saturday, 8:56 pm
     
  • Helps eliminate Rangers
    Bobrovsky turned aside 23 of 24 shots on goal in Saturday's 2-1 series-clinching victory over New York in Game 6.

    Advice: Bobrovsky faced less than 24 shots on net for the third time over the Panthers' last four contests. Florida's style of play has allowed the netminder not to be overworked en route to the team's second consecutive trip to the Stanley Cup Finals. The Panthers will face either Edmonton or Dallas in the final round of the postseason. Bob is 12-5 with a 2.20 GAA and a .908 save percentage in 17 playoff appearances this year.

  • Starting in Game 6
    Bobrovsky will patrol the home crease versus the Rangers on Saturday, according to Jameson Olive of the Panthers' official site.

    Advice: Bobrovsky was stellar during the regular season, going 36-17-4 with a 2.37 GAA and a .915 save percentage. That success has continued in the playoffs, as the Russian netminder is 11-5 with a 2.27 GAA and a .905 save percentage. If the Panthers emerge victorious Saturday, the team will compete in the Stanley Cup Finals for a second straight year. Rotowire.com Saturday, 8:41 am
     
  • Snags helper in win
    Ekblad recorded an assist in Thursday's 3-2 victory over the Rangers in Game 5.

    Advice: Ekblad was able to bring his six-game pointless streak to a close with his helper Thursday but remains mired in a 29-game goal drought dating back to Feb. 20 versus the Senators. While the blueliner should continue to register plenty of hits and blocks in the postseason, fantasy players probably shouldn't be banking on him suddenly producing points regularly.

  • Steady once again in road win
    Bobrovsky made 25 saves on 27 shots in Thursday's 3-2 win against New York in Game 5.

    Advice: Bobrovsky was his usual self between the pipes Thursday, helping the Panthers inch closer to advancing to the Stanley Cup Finals. The 35-year-old has allowed two goals or less in nine of his last 10 appearances. With Florida rarely allowing more than 30 shots on goal during this playoff run, Bobrovsky has been able to perform at an extremely high level. Florida has also consistently been able to provide Bobrovsky with offensive support -- they've scored less than two goals only three times this postseason and have not been shutout. Bobrovsky is 11-5 with a 2.27 GAA and a .905 save percentage in 16 postseason appearances. Rotowire.com Friday, 2:48 am
     
  • Registers two points in win
    Bennett scored a goal and added an assist in Thursday's 3-2 win over the Rangers in Game 5.

    Advice: Bennett was a major contributor in Thursday's win -- he set up Gustav Forsling in the second period to tie the game before potting an empty-netter, which ended up being the game-winner. It was Bennett's first multi-point performance since April 23 against Tampa Bay. The 27-year-old has five points in as many games in this series, and he's back to centering the second line after a recent stint on the third line. This would suggest that Bennett is close to or at full strength after missing five contests across the first two rounds of the postseason. Bennett is up to five goals and nine points with a plus-2 rating in 11 playoff appearances. Rotowire.com Friday, 2:43 am
     
  • Starting in Game 5
    Bobrovsky will defend the road crease against the Rangers on Thursday, Jameson Olive of the Panthers' official site reports.

    Advice: Bobrovsky has been terrific in the playoffs, starting all 15 games, going 10-5 with a sparkling 2.29 GAA. Bobrovsky was stellar Tuesday, stopping 21 shots in a 3-2 overtime win at home versus the Rangers, as the Panthers tied the series at two games apiece. Bobrovsky has allowed nine goals on 100 shots in the first four games of the best-of-seven series. Rotowire.com Thursday, 9:29 am
     
  • Back on scoresheet in win
    Montour notched a helper on the game-winning goal in overtime in Tuesday's 3-2 win over New York in Game 4.

    Advice: Montour had the secondary assist on Sam Reinhart's game-winner in overtime to help tie the series. Montour was held off the scoresheet in six consecutive contests prior to getting on the board in Tuesday's win. He added four shots, six hits and a minus-1 rating in 23:50 of ice time, which was the most of any skater in the game. The 30-year-old defenseman has been streaky during the playoffs -- seven of his nine points have come in three outings combined. Montour is up to three goals, six assists and a plus-2 rating in 15 postseason appearances so far. Rotowire.com Wednesday, 9:13 am
