    • Adds helper in Game 3
      Benn recorded an assist in Saturday's 4-1 win over the Avalanche in Game 3.

      Advice: Benn helped out on Tyler Seguin's empty-net goal in the third period. Benn is already at four points through three games in the second round after earning three points in seven contests against Vegas during the opening round. The 34-year-old forward has added 16 shots on net, 31 hits and an even plus-minus rating through 10 playoff outings while filling a middle-six role. Rotowire.com Saturday, 11:17 pm
       
    • Keeps streak going with helper
      Zibanejad logged an assist and two PIM in Saturday's 4-3 loss to the Hurricanes in Game 4.

      Advice: Zibanejad fed Alexis Lafreniere for a game-tying goal in the third period. The helper extended Zibanejad's point streak to 14 games, during which he has accumulated five goals and 16 helpers. That includes three goals, 10 assists, 22 shots on net and a plus-2 rating over eight playoff contests. The 31-year-old center continues to pile up offense while seeing a top-line role.

    • Slings helper in win
      Svechnikov registered a power-play assist, two shots on goal and two blocked shots in Saturday's 4-3 win over the Rangers in Game 4.

      Advice: Svechnikov is heating up with four points over his last three contests. He helped out on Brady Skjei's game-winning goal late in the third period Saturday. Svechnikov is up to nine points (two on the power play), 27 shots on net, 23 hits, 14 PIM and a plus-2 rating over nine playoff appearances. His best chance to contribute offense will be if he continues to play alongside Sebastian Aho and Jake Guentzel on the first line. Rotowire.com Saturday, 9:45 pm
       
    • Pots goal in win
      Aho scored a goal and added four hits in Saturday's 4-3 win over the Rangers in Game 4.

      Advice: Aho snapped a five-game goal drought with his first-period tally, which gave the Hurricanes a 3-1 lead. The center has been much more involved in the second round with seven points over four contests. He's up to three goals, seven helpers, 26 shots on net, 19 hits and a plus-4 rating through nine playoff outings. Rotowire.com Saturday, 9:26 pm
       
    • Assist in return to lineup
      Bennett (upper body) produced a primary assist in his return to the lineup in Friday's 6-2 Game 3 win over Boston.

      Advice: Bennett's return to the lineup paid immediate dividends for the Panthers -- the second-line center registered an assist on Vladimir Tarasenko's goal late in the second period. The 27-year-old Bennett also threw seven hits in 12:43 of ice time. Bennett's ice time will likely increase in the coming games as he readjusts to the pace of playoff hockey. Overall this postseason, Bennett has one goal and two assists in three games. Rotowire.com Friday, 8:32 pm
       
    • Good to go Friday
      Bennett (upper body) will return to the lineup for Friday's Game 3 against the Bruins, Katie Engleson of Bally Sports Florida reports.

      Advice: Bennett was injured during Game 2 against the Lightning last round and went on to miss five straight games. He'll slide back into a top-six role alongside Carter Verhaeghe and Matthew Tkachuk on Friday. After scoring 20 goals and 41 points in the regular season, Bennett has two points through two playoff appearances. Rotowire.com Friday, 3:45 pm
       
    • Extends scoring streak to 13 games
      Zibanejad registered a shorthanded assist in a 3-2 overtime victory over Carolina in Game 3 on Thursday.

      Advice: Zibanejad helped out Chris Kreider midway through the second period who evened the score at 1-1. The 31-year-old Zibanejad is on a 13-game point streak dating back to the regular season in which he's provided five goals and 20 points -- that run includes three goals and 12 points across seven playoff outings. Zibanejad figures to continue to play a critical role on the Rangers' first line and top power-play unit. Rotowire.com Friday, 1:04 pm
       
    • Picks up assist Thursday
      Aho recorded an assist in a 3-2 overtime loss to the Rangers in Game 3 on Thursday.

      Advice: He helped on Andrei Svechnikov's game-tying marker late in the third period, but Aho's efforts ultimately failed to prevent Carolina from falling behind 3-0 in the second-round series. Although the Hurricanes have come up short against the Rangers, Aho has excelled with six assists through three contests in the series. That gives him two goals and nine points across eight playoff outings this year after setting a career high of 89 points (36 goals) in 78 regular-season games. Rotowire.com Friday, 11:22 am
       
    • Game-time call
      Bennett (upper body) will be a game-time decision for Friday's Game 3 versus the Bruins.

      Advice: Bennett picked up two points through the first two games of Florida's first-round series versus Tampa Bay before missing the team's next five contests with an upper-body injury. If he's able to return Friday, look for Bennett to center the second line while seeing time with the first power-play unit against Boston. Rotowire.com Friday, 9:50 am
