  • Slings helper Friday
    Seguin logged an assist and two shots on goal in Friday's 2-1 double-overtime win over the Avalanche in Game 6.

    Advice: Seguin appeared to be injured late in Wednesday's Game 5, but he was deemed fine a day later. The 32-year-old helped out on a Jamie Benn equalizer in the third period of Game 6. Through 13 playoff outings, Seguin has eight points, 39 shots on net, 18 hits and a plus-7 rating while filling a middle-six role. Rotowire.com Friday, 11:34 pm
     
  • Clinches series win
    Duchene scored the game-winning goal in Friday's 2-1 double-overtime win over the Avalanche in Game 6.

    Advice: Duchene was called for goaltender interference on a potential game-winner in the first overtime. That didn't dissuade him from sticking near the net, and he converted 11:42 into the second extra session after the puck popped loose from a scrum in front of the net. Through 13 playoff contests, Duchene has two goals, six points, 18 shots on net, 16 hits, 13 blocked shots and a plus-2 rating. He is filling in on a line with Jason Robertson and Joe Pavelski while Roope Hintz (upper body) recovers from an upper-body injury. Rotowire.com Friday, 11:27 pm
     
  • Two points in Game 6 clincher
    Lundell scored a goal and added an assist in a 2-1 win over the Bruins on Friday in Game 6.

    Advice: Lundell's marker came in the second period, and he then supplied the primary assist on the game-winner, propelling the Panthers to victory and clinching the series to advance to the Eastern Conference Finals. This was Lundell's second multi-point performance of the playoffs. Over the past few weeks, Lundell has been a consistent force on the ice, tallying points in seven out of his last 10 contests and displaying strong chemistry with his linemates.

  • 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.

  • Won't play Friday
    Trenin (upper body) will not be in the lineup for Game 6 versus Dallas on Friday. Coach Jared Bednar told reporters, "He won't be available tonight. He's on the shelf for tonight's game. Still classify him as day-to-day," per Kyle Fredrickson of The Denver Gazette.

    Advice: Trenin has produced just one point in 10 postseason contests, so his absence from the lineup is unlikely to have a significant impact on fantasy players. Without Trenin in the lineup, the Avs will likely turn to Chris Wagner to fill a fourth-line center role, though Fredrik Olofsson could also be in the mix. Rotowire.com Friday, 10:18 am
     
  • Finds twine in Game 5
    Janmark scored a goal on two shots and added two PIM in Thursday's 3-2 loss to the Canucks.

    Advice: Janmark snapped a seven-game point drought with his first-period tally. The 31-year-old forward remains in a fourth-line role, so it's not unusual to see him go long stretches without offense since the Oilers lean heavily on their top players. Through 10 playoff outings, Janmark has a goal, two assists, seven shots on net, 10 hits and a plus-2 rating. Rotowire.com Thursday, 11:02 pm
     
  • Stays warm with assist
    Lindholm notched an assist, three shots on goal and three hits in Thursday's 3-2 win over the Oilers in Game 5.

    Advice: Lindholm has points in three straight contests and six points over five second-round appearances versus the Oilers. His assist Thursday was timely, as it set up J.T. Miller for the game-winning goal with 33 seconds left in the third period. Lindholm has produced nine points, 22 shots on net, 30 hits and a plus-3 rating over 11 playoff outings. He has spent much of the postseason on the third line, but he was moved up to the second line in an effort to support the slumping Elias Pettersson, who shifted to the wing.
