    • Two goals to clinch series
      Draisaitl scored a pair of goals on a team-high six shots in Wednesday's 4-3 Game 5 victory over the Kings.

      Advice: Draisaitl tied the game 2-2 midway through the second period with a power-play goal before putting Edmonton ahead just a few minutes later with a second tally, beating David Rittich with a one-timer off a Connor McDavid feed. It was an excellent start to the post-season for Draisaitl -- the 28-year-old center tallied five goals and 10 points in the Oilers' decisive five-game series victory.

    • Earns series-clinching win
      Skinner stopped 18 of 21 shots in Wednesday's 4-3 Game 4 victory over Los Angeles.

      Advice: It wasn't the busiest game for Skinner, but the 25-year-old netminder did just enough for the one-goal win as the Oilers took the series 4-1. After allowing nine goals on 63 shots in his first two games of the series, Skinner looked better in his last three contests, posting a .951 save percentage. Edmonton will now get a few days off before they face the winner of the Vancouver-Nashville series in the second round. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 7:10 am
       
    • Set to face Kings
      Skinner is expected to start at home against LA in Game 5 on Wednesday, per Jason Gregor of Sports 1440 Edmonton.

      Advice: Skinner earned a 33-save shutout over the Kings in Game 4 on Sunday, and he's stopped 60 of 61 shots (.984 save percentage) over his last two starts. That gives him a 3-1 record, 2.48 GAA and .919 save percentage in four playoff contests this year. The 25-year-old was streaky in the regular season, finishing with a 36-16-5 record, 2.62 GAA and .905 save percentage in 59 appearances, but Skinner seems to be on a roll with a chance to eliminate the Kings up for grabs.

    • Nets power-play goal
      Josi scored a power-play goal on three shots and blocked two shots in Tuesday's 2-1 win over the Canucks in Game 5.

      Advice: Josi has a goal, two assists, nine shots on net, 10 blocked shots and a plus-1 rating through five playoff contests. His tally Tuesday tied the game at 1-1. Josi's offense has been a little limited during the playoffs compared to his 85-point regular season, but he should continue to play with urgency as the Predators look to stave off elimination two more times in the first round.

    • Reassigned to minors
      Tomkins was reassigned to AHL Syracuse on Tuesday.

      Advice: Tomkins appeared in six games with the Lightning this season, recording an .892 save percentage and a 3-2-1 record. The 29-year-old will look to lead AHL Syracuse to a potential Calder Cup Championship. He will likely be the backup for Tampa Bay heading into next season. Rotowire.com Tuesday, 8:40 am
       
    • Scores in Game 4 loss
      Eichel scored a goal on three shots and blocked two shots in Monday's 4-2 loss to the Stars in Game 4.

      Advice: Eichel put the Golden Knights ahead 2-1 in the second period, but their offense stalled out there. The 27-year-old is riding an eight-game point streak, which includes three goals and three helpers over four playoff contests. The center remains a huge part of the Vegas offense and will look to get his team back on track in Wednesday's Game 5. Rotowire.com Monday, 10:55 pm
       
    • Sets up decisive goal
      Draisaitl recorded a power-play assist, two shots on goal and three blocked shots in Sunday's 1-0 win over the Kings in Game 4.

      Advice: Draisaitl has eight points over four playoff outings, and six of those points have come with the man advantage. He set up Evan Bouchard's second-period marker Sunday, which was enough to give the Oilers a 3-1 lead in this first-round series. While Draisaitl's 5-on-5 offense has been lacking, he continues to be a reliable scorer while seeing big minutes in the top six and on the power play. Rotowire.com Sunday, 11:34 pm
       
    • Steals Game 4 win
      Skinner recorded a 33-save shutout in Sunday's 1-0 win over the Kings in Game 4.

      Advice: The Oilers looked like the worse team for the first time in the series, but Skinner stepped up to deliver his first playoff shutout and his third win in four first-round games. The 25-year-old was able to make an Evan Bouchard power-play goal hold for the win Sunday. Skinner has given up 11 goals over four games versus the Kings, and he'll likely be in goal again for Wednesday's Game 5 in Edmonton. Rotowire.com Sunday, 11:31 pm
       
    • Two power-play points in win
      Panarin scored a goal on four shots and added an assist in Sunday's 4-2 win over the Capitals in Game 4.

      Advice: Both of Panarin's points came on the power play. The winger was relatively quiet in the first round, logging three points and 11 shots on net during the four-game sweep. Panarin had 120 points, including 44 on the power play, in a career year over 82 regular-season appearances. Rotowire.com Sunday, 8:10 pm
