    • Won't play Wednesday
      Hintz (upper body) will miss Wednesday's Game 5 versus Colorado, per Stars radio analyst Bruce LeVine.

      Advice: Hintz has two goals and six points in nine playoff contests this year. Dallas would advance to the Western Conference Finals with one more victory, giving Hintz more time to rest before the Stars' schedule resumes. However, even if Colorado forces a Game 6 on Friday, the 27-year-old might still be an option given his current day-to-day status. In the meantime, Radek Faksa is projected to draw into the lineup against the Avalanche due to Hintz's absence. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 8:44 am
       
    • Undergoing testing
      Hintz (upper body) is still being evaluated ahead of Wednesday's Game 5 matchup against Colorado, according to Shawn McFarland of The Dallas Morning News.

      Advice: Hintz didn't return to Monday's 5-1 win over the Avalanche in Game 4 after blocking a shot late in the first period. He has generated two goals, four assists, 13 shots on net and 15 hits in 11 outings this postseason. If Hintz isn't available to play in Game 5, Radek Faksa or Ty Dellandrea could suit up in Wednesday's contest versus Colorado. Rotowire.com Tuesday, 11:30 am
       
    • Scores game-winning goal
      Kuznetsov potted the game-winning goal in Monday's 4-1 victory over New York in Game 5.

      Advice: After being a healthy scratch in Game 2 of this series, Kuznetsov has now scored in consecutive contests to help keep Carolina's season alive. The 31-year-old forward drove to the net and buried a rebound off of a shot from Brady Skjei. It was Kuznetsov's fourth goal and sixth point of the postseason in nine outings. Kuznetsov and the Hurricanes will be at home Thursday night for Game 6 against the Rangers in another potential elimination game. Rotowire.com Tuesday, 9:22 am
    • Injured Monday
      Hintz suffered an upper-body injury during Game 4 against Colorado on Monday.

      Advice: Hintz logged just 6:35 of ice time before exiting the contest. He's tallied two goals and six points through 11 playoff appearances after racking up 30 goals and 65 points during the regular season. An update on his status should be available before Game 5 on Wednesday. Rotowire.com Monday, 9:06 pm
       
    • Nabs helper Saturday
      Hintz recorded an assist, two blocked shots and a plus-2 rating in Saturday's 4-1 win over the Avalanche in Game 3.

      Advice: Hintz had a four-point performance in Game 2, and he got back on the scoresheet with a helper on a Logan Stankoven empty-netter in Game 3. With six points through 10 playoff outings, it's fair to ask a bit more of Hintz on offense. The center has added 13 shots on net, 15 hits, six blocked shots and a minus-1 rating this postseason, though he remains firmly in a top-line role. Rotowire.com Saturday, 11:12 pm
       
    • Nets goal in win
      Kuznetsov scored a goal on three shots in Saturday's 4-3 win over the Rangers in Game 4.

      Advice: The tally was Kuznetsov's first point in three appearances in the second round. He was scratched in Game 2, and he continues to play in a bottom-six role, though he's also maintained a power-play assignment. The center has three goals, two assists, 13 shots on net, five hits and a plus-1 rating over eight playoff outings despite increasingly limited ice time -- he saw just 8:38 in Saturday's win.

    • Racks up four points in win
      Hintz scored a goal on three shots, distributed three assists and added two PIM in Thursday's 5-3 win over the Avalanche in Game 2.

      Advice: Hintz was involved in the Stars' first three goals, sandwiching his own even-strength goal between a pair of Miro Heiskanen power-play tallies that he helped out on. The 27-year-old Hintz also set up Esa Lindell's empty-netter in the third. Prior to Thursday, Hintz had been limited to one goal and 10 shots on net over his first eight playoff outings. He's at five points, 13 shots, 15 hits, six PIM and a minus-3 rating this postseason. Rotowire.com Thursday, 10:03 pm
       
    • Healthy scratch Tuesday
      Although an initial report suggested Kuznetsov was unavailable for Tuesday's Game 2 versus the Rangers because of an undisclosed injury, he is actually a healthy scratch for the contest, per Tom Gulitti of NHL.com

      Advice: Kuznetsov took a bad penalty in Game 1 on Sunday that led to a goal in what was ultimately a 4-3 loss to the Rangers, which is likely why he's out of the lineup Tuesday. The 31-year-old has two goals and four points in six playoff contests this year while averaging a modest 11:37 of ice time. Max Comtois drew into the lineup for Game 2 due to Kuznetsov being scratched. Rotowire.com Tuesday, 4:26 pm
    • Not playing in Game 2
      Kuznetsov (undisclosed) won't play Tuesday in Game 2 versus the Rangers, Walt Ruff of the Hurricanes' official site reports.

      Advice: Kuznetsov has two goals and two assists in six games this postseason. He will be replaced in the lineup by Max Comtois. Rotowire.com Tuesday, 3:44 pm
