    • Practicing in non-contact jersey
      Vesey (upper body) is at practice Saturday in a non-contact jersey, Dan Rosen of NHL.com reports.

      Advice: Vesey was injured eight days ago in Game 2 and he was deemed week-to-week at that time. The 31-year-old winger has a goal and two assists in 12 postseason appearances. Rotowire.com 54 minutes ago
       
    • Not practicing Saturday
      Wheeler (undisclosed) is not at morning skate Saturday, Vince Z. Mercogliano of USA Today reports.

      Advice: According to a source, Wheeler is injured, leaving his status unclear for Game 6 in Florida on Saturday. He has played in only one game since Feb. 15 because of a leg injury. Wheeler logged just 9:18 of ice time in Game 4 versus the Panthers on Tuesday before sitting out Thursday's Game 5. Anton Blidh has been filling in during Saturday's practice but isn't expected to be in the lineup if Wheeler is unavailable. Rotowire.com Today, 8:32 am
       
    • Plucks apple Friday
      Stankoven logged an assist and three shots on goal in Friday's 3-1 loss to the Oilers in Game 5.

      Advice: Stankoven has just two helpers over five contests in the Western Conference Finals after picking up four points in the second round. The 21-year-old forward is at eight points, 33 shots on net, 21 hits, 17 blocked shots and a plus-6 rating over 18 playoff outings. He'll likely continue to see middle-six minutes as the Stars look to keep their season alive in Game 6 on Sunday. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 9:00 pm
       
    • Helpers in consecutive games
      Harley notched an assist and blocked six shots in Friday's 3-1 loss to the Oilers in Game 5.

      Advice: The six blocks were one off Harley's playoff high. More notably, he got on the scoresheet for the second game in a row, assisting on a Wyatt Johnston tally in the third period to break up Stuart Skinner's shutout bid. Harley has been limited to four helpers over 18 playoff outings, but he's added 50 blocks, 27 shots on net and a plus-8 rating in a top-four role. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 8:58 pm
       
    • Garners assist
      Henrique recorded an assist in Friday's 3-1 win over the Stars in Game 5.

      Advice: Henrique has a goal and an assist over three games since he returned from an ankle injury. The 34-year-old forward is up to four points, seven shots on net, 30 hits and an even plus-minus rating through nine playoff appearances. The Oilers have found success with him on the third line, so it's unlikely his role will change heading into Game 6 on Sunday. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 8:48 pm
       
    • Scores first playoff goal
      Broberg scored a goal and blocked three shots in Friday's 3-1 win over the Stars in Game 5.

      Advice: Broberg's first career playoff goal stretched the Oilers' lead to 3-0 in the second period. The defenseman has played in each of the last two games, replacing Vincent Desharnais in a third-pairing role. With limited minutes, Broberg is unlikely to be a steady source of offense, and he also lacks the physicality that kept Desharnais in the lineup for so long. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 8:36 pm
       
    • Good to go Friday
      Tanev (lower body) will play Friday in Game 5 against the Oilers, Mike Heika of the Stars' official site reports.

      Advice: Tanev was injured after blocking a shot in Game 4 on Wednesday but won't miss any additional time. He's tallied just one assist through 17 appearances this postseason. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 5:12 pm
       
    • Heading to Switzerland
      Larsson signed a two-year deal with the SC Rapperswil-Jona Lakers of Switzerland's National League on Friday, Bruce Garrioch of the Ottawa Citizen reports Friday.

      Advice: Larsson had seven goals, 33 points and 46 PIM in 61 regular-season contests with AHL Belleville in 2023-24. The 27-year-old has recorded three goals, 24 points and 52 PIM in 172 career NHL games, but he didn't play at the top level in 2023-24. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 12:30 pm
       
    • Game-time decision Friday
      Tanev (lower body) will be a game-time decision for Game 5 versus Edmonton on Friday, though coach Peter DeBoer is optimistic that Tanev (lower body) will play, Tracey Myers of NHL.com reports.

      Advice: Tanev was injured blocking a shot Wednesday in the second period and was unable to return. Tanev is a stud defensively and if he is unable to go, the Stars will need to fill a big hole on the blue line. Lian Bichsel is poised to make his NHL debut if Tanev is unable to go.
