    • Tending twine Friday
      Skinner will get the starting nod for Game 3 in Los Angeles on Friday, Zach Dooley of the Kings' official site reports.

      Advice: Skinner has struggled so far this postseason, coughing up nine goals on 63 shots in two games. Including his final start of the regular season, he's 1-2-0 with an unsightly .829 save percentage over his last three outings. Skinner went 13-10-2 with an .894 save percentage and a 2.80 GAA in 27 road appearances during the regular season. Rotowire.com 4 minutes ago
       
    • Yields five goals in loss
      Skinner allowed five goals on 26 shots in Wednesday's 5-4 overtime loss to the Kings in Game 2.

      Advice: Skinner is now 1-1 in the postseason, having allowed nine goals on 63 shots. He's given up at least four goals in three straight games, something he didn't do in the seven outings prior to his recent struggles. The Oilers will likely continue to roll with Skinner in goal, though it could be up to the offense to cover up his mistakes in a first-round series that has not been kind to the goalies so far. The next game is Friday in Los Angeles. Rotowire.com Wednesday, 11:13 pm
       
    • Slips in Game 2
      Oettinger stopped 23 of 25 shots in Wednesday's 3-1 loss to the Golden Knights in Game 2. The third goal was an empty-netter.

      Advice: Both goals against Oettinger came with less than two minutes left in a period -- Jonathan Marchessault scored at 18:09 of the first and Noah Hanifin's game-winner was at 18:53 of the second. While it was an improvement from Game 1, it still wasn't good enough from Oettinger, who will now likely get the opportunity to try to guide the Stars out of a 2-0 series deficit. Game 3 is Saturday in Vegas. Rotowire.com Wednesday, 10:25 pm
       
    • Slated to face LA
      Skinner is set to start at home against the Kings for Game 2 on Wednesday, per Jason Gregor of Sports 1440 Edmonton.

      Advice: Skinner allowed four goals on 37 shots versus LA in Game 1 on Monday, but he got plenty of goal support en route to a 7-4 victory. He's typically done better against the Kings, posting a 4-1-0 record, 2.39 GAA and a .926 save percentage over five contests this year, including four regular-season outings. The Kings also left something to be desired offensively during the regular season, finishing the campaign in a tie for 16th offensively with 3.10 goals per contest.

    • Set to start vs. Golden Knights
      Oettinger is slated to start at home against the Golden Knights in Game 2 on Wednesday, per Stars radio analyst Bruce LeVine.

      Advice: Oettinger will attempt to rebound after allowing four goals on just 15 shots in a 4-3 loss to Vegas on Monday. He was inconsistent in the regular season, finishing with a 35-14-4 record, 2.72 GAA and .905 save percentage in 54 contests. Oettinger also had a tough time versus the Golden Knights during the 2023 playoffs, stopping 143 of 163 shots (.877 save percentage) over the course of that six-game series.

    • Records helper
      Connor provided an assist, fired two shots on goal and added four PIM in Tuesday's 5-2 loss to the Avalanche in Game 2.

      Advice: Connor helped out on a Mark Scheifele tally in the second period. The assist gave Connor at least a point in each of his last 10 games -- he's earned six goals and 10 helpers in that span. The winger has four points, seven shots on net and a plus-1 rating over two playoff outings so far and looks poised to remain a fixture on the top line. Rotowire.com Tuesday, 10:54 pm
       
    • Snags helper in win
      MacKinnon posted an assist, two shots on goal and a plus-3 rating in Tuesday's 5-2 win over the Jets in Game 2.

      Advice: MacKinnon set up a Josh Manson tally on a breakaway out of the penalty box late in the second period. The helper was MacKinnon's third point over two playoff contests so far, and he's added six shots on net and a plus-2 rating. The superstar center has 16 points over 10 outings in April and remains the focal point of the Avalanche's offense. Rotowire.com Tuesday, 10:26 pm
       
    • Lights lamp in win
      Manson scored a goal on three shots, went plus-4, added two PIM, logged six hits and blocked two shots in Tuesday's 5-2 win over the Jets in Game 2.

      Advice: Manson has two goals and two assists during his four-game point streak. The 32-year-old defenseman's goal was a momentum-changing tally late in the second period, giving the Avalanche a 4-2 lead heading into the third. He continues to see top-four minutes, though he could be the blueliner to move down the lineup once Samuel Girard (concussion) is able to play. Rotowire.com Tuesday, 10:14 pm
       
    • Erupts for four helpers
      Bouchard logged four assists (two on the power play), three shots on goal and three blocked shots in Monday's 7-4 win over the Kings in Game 1.

      Advice: Bouchard helped out on both of the Oilers' first-period tallies and added two more assists in the third when their power play took over. The defenseman had a career year of 18 goals and 64 assists in 81 appearances during the regular season, which included 35 power-play points. Bouchard's role on the first power-play unit gives him a high ceiling on offense. Rotowire.com Monday, 11:29 pm
