    • Possible for Game 5
      Kane (abdomen) is a possibility for Game 5 against Florida on Tuesday, per Tracey Myers of NHL.com.

      Advice: Kane will travel with the Oilers to Florida, and the team will evaluate his health ahead of Tuesday's contest. The 32-year-old forward has missed the last two games due to a sports hernia. Kane has generated four goals, four assists, 44 shots on net, 37 PIM and 64 hits in 20 outings this postseason.

    • Adds insurance marker
      McLeod scored a goal and added two hits in Saturday's 8-1 win over the Panthers in Game 4.

      Advice: McLeod tacked on a goal late in the third period. He's scored in consecutive contests for the first time since December. Through 21 playoff outings, the 24-year-old has just three goals with 22 shots on net, 26 hits and a minus-5 rating. Given his lack of production, it's no surprise he remains in a bottom-six role with minimal power-play time. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 10:58 pm
       
    • Pots goal in Game 4 win
      Nurse scored a goal on six shots, blocked five shots, added four PIM and went plus-3 in Saturday's 8-1 win over the Panthers in Game 4.

      Advice: There's been little to like from Nurse's game this postseason, but he was at his best, aside from the penalties, in Saturday's big win. The defenseman has just five points through 22 playoff contests, and he's still at a minus-11 rating. He's remained a physical force on the blue line with 46 hits and 55 blocks.

    • Out for Game 4
      Kane (abdomen) won't play in Game 4 against Florida on Saturday, according to Tracey Myers of NHL.com.

      Advice: Kane, who has been dealing with a sports hernia since the end of the regular season, will miss his second straight contest. He has generated four goals, four assists, 44 shots on net and 64 hits in 20 contests this postseason. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 4:46 pm
       
    • Not at practice Saturday
      Kane (hip) is not at morning practice and is questionable ahead of Game 4 versus Florida on Saturday, Daniel Nugent-Bowman of The Athletic reports.

      Advice: Kane didn't play in Game 3 on Thursday after logging only 10:33 of ice time in Game 2 on Monday. The feisty winger has four goals, four assists, 37 PIM and 64 hits in 20 appearances this postseason. Warren Foegele is slated to occupy a spot in the top-six group should Kane be unavailable to play.

    • Collects assist in loss
      Nurse notched an assist, two hits and two blocked shots in Thursday's 4-3 loss to the Panthers in Game 3.

      Advice: Nurse was questionable heading into Thursday's game after leaving Monday's Game 1 with a hip injury. The 29-year-old defenseman snapped his four-game slump with a helper on a Philip Broberg tally in the third period. Nurse has underwhelmed this postseason with four helpers, a minus-14 rating, 50 blocked shots, 45 hits and 32 shots on net through 21 appearances, though he remains in a top-four role.

    • Finds twine in loss
      McLeod scored a goal on two shots in Thursday's 4-3 loss to the Panthers in Game 3.

      Advice: McLeod has two goals over his last six contests, but that represents all of his offense this postseason. The 24-year-old was shuffled onto the second line with Evander Kane (hip) unavailable for Thursday's contest, though McLeod still saw just 9:53 of ice time. In addition to his two points, he's added 21 shots on net, 24 hits and a minus-6 rating through 20 playoff appearances. Rotowire.com Thursday, 11:49 pm
       
    • Contributes helper in win
      Tkachuk notched an assist, two shots on goal, two hits, two PIM and a minus-2 rating in Thursday's 4-3 win over the Oilers in Game 3.

      Advice: Tkachuk ended his four-game point drought by setting up Sam Bennett's goal in the second period. It's been eight games since Tkachuk has scored a goal of his own, but he's continued to provide a physical impact even with the lack of offense. He's produced five goals, 15 assists, 73 shots on net, 55 hits, 23 PIM and a plus-5 rating through 20 playoff appearances. Rotowire.com Thursday, 11:26 pm
       
    • Unavailable Thursday
      Kane (hip) is expected to miss Game 3 against the Panthers on Thursday, per Greg Wyshynski of ESPN.

      Advice: Kane has four goals, eight points, 37 PIM and 64 hits in 20 playoff outings this year. Corey Perry and Derek Ryan, who were both healthy scratches for Game 2 on Monday, are projected to draw back into the lineup Thursday. Sam Carrick is slated to miss Thursday's game after logging 7:31 of ice time in Edmonton's last contest, but unlike Kane, it's believed Carrick's absence is due to a coach's decision.
