    • Fills stat sheet Friday
      Draisaitl scored a power-play goal on four shots, dished three assists, added two PIM and went plus-2 in Friday's 4-3 overtime win over the Canucks in Game 2.

      Advice: Not bad for a guy who was considered a game-time decision after dealing with cramping issues in Wednesday's Game 1 and skipping practice Thursday. Draisaitl was involved in all of the Oilers' goals, including scoring their first one of the game. He was listed on the first line with Connor McDavid rather than centering his own line, though both players shared faceoff duties. Draisaitl is up to six goals, 10 assists, 30 shots on net and a plus-3 rating through seven playoff outings, and he's yet to be held off the scoresheet this postseason.

    • Expected to play Friday
      Draisaitl (undisclosed) is warming up and is expected to suit up against the Canucks for Game 2 on Friday, Elliotte Friedman of Sportsnet reports.

      Advice: Draisaitl missed a morning skate after dealing with cramping issues during Wednesday's Game 1 loss. Fortunately for Edmonton, he shouldn't miss any additional time. The star forward has five goals and 12 points through six games this postseason. Draisaitl tallied two assists in Game 1 against Vancouver. Rotowire.com Friday, 6:39 pm
       
    • Two points, OT winner
      Panarin notched a goal and an assist in Thursday's 3-2 overtime victory over the Hurricanes in Game 3.

      Advice: Panarin set up Alexis Lafreniere's go-ahead tally early in the third period before eventually scoring the game-winner 1:43 into overtime, deflecting a Vincent Trocheck feed between his legs and past Pyotr Kochetkov to give the Rangers the win in Game 3. The 32-year-old Panarin now has three goals and eight points in his last four games. He's up to nine points (four goals, five assists) through seven postseason contests.

    • Stellar again in Game 3
      Shesterkin stopped 45 of 47 shots in Thursday's 3-2 overtime win over Carolina in Game 3.

      Advice: Shesterkin was the difference maker Thursday as the Rangers picked up the overtime win despite being outshot 47 to 25. The 28-year-old netminder's now stopped 99 of 104 shots in his last two starts, improving to a perfect 7-0-0 in the postseason with an outstanding .942 save percentage and 1.78 GAA. Shesterkin will almost certainly be back between the pipes Saturday with the Rangers looking for a sweep in Game 4 on the road. Rotowire.com Friday, 7:10 am
       
    • Collects helper in loss
      Mittelstadt recorded an assist in Thursday's 5-3 loss to the Stars in Game 2.

      Advice: Mittelstadt has gone six games without a goal, but he has six assists in that span. The 25-year-old is performing well from his second-line spot with seven points, 16 shots on net and a plus-4 rating over seven playoff outings. The Avalanche's top six continues to see small adjustments, but Mittelstadt has had no trouble regardless of who he's had on his wings, so he can be safely utilized in most DFS formats.

    • Starting Game 3
      Shesterkin will guard the road goal versus the Hurricanes in Thursday's Game 3, Arthur Staple of The Athletic reports.

      Advice: Shesterkin is 6-0 with a 2.01 GAA and a .929 save percentage over six playoff contests. He earned a 28-save shutout win in his lone appearance in Carolina during the regular season, and he's gone 4-1-0 with 13 goals allowed over five total contests versus the Hurricanes in 2023-24.

    • Questionable for Game 2
      Draisaitl (undisclosed) is day-to-day and questionable for Game 2 against Vancouver on Friday, Daniel Nugent-Bowman of The Athletic reports Thursday.

      Advice: Draisaitl dealt with a cramping issue during the second period of Wednesday's 5-4 loss to the Canucks, though he was able to return in the third frame. However, the 28-year-old forward then missed Thursday's morning skate, per Tony Brar of Oilers TV. Draisaitl's value to the Oilers can't be overstated. He has five goals and 12 points through six playoff outings. If he's unable to play and Adam Henrique (lower body) returns after missing Game 1, then perhaps Henrique will serve as Edmonton's second-line center. However, if neither forward is available, then Ryan McLeod might be moved into that top-six role. Rotowire.com Thursday, 2:25 pm
       
    • Grabs two helpers
      Draisaitl recorded a pair of assists in Wednesday's 5-4 Game 1 loss to Vancouver. According to Elliotte Friedman of Sportsnet, Draisaitl was dealing with cramps in the second period before returning in the third.

      Advice: Draisaitl managed just 16:43 of ice time due to his cramping issue, his lowest total during a game this postseason. Still, the world-class center has registered at least a point in all six playoff contests, racking up a combined five goals and seven helpers, including eight power-play points.

    • Four helpers in Game 2
      Reinhart recorded four assists in Wednesday's 6-1 win over the Bruins in Game 2.

      Advice: Reinhart set up Aleksander Barkov's go-ahead goal in the second period before adding assists on all three of Florida's third-period goals. The 28-year-old Reinhart hadn't recorded an assist in his prior seven postseason games, though he had three goals in five games in the Panthers' opening-round series versus Tampa Bay. Reinhart posted 57 goals and 94 points, both career highs, in 82 regular-season contests. Rotowire.com Wednesday, 9:08 pm
