    • Between pipes Friday
      Hellebuyck will defend the road crease in Colorado for Game 3 on Friday, Mitchell Clinton of the Jets' official site reports.

      Advice: Hellebuyck struggled in the opening two games of the series, allowing 10 goals on 77 shots. Tuesday's 5-2 loss to Colorado snapped Hellebuyck's six-game winning streak. He was 37-19-4 with a 2.39 GAA and a .921 save percentage in 60 regular-season appearances. The Avalanche have had no problem finding the back of the net thus far, they'll hope to continue that trend as the series shifts to Colorado for Games 3 and 4. Rotowire.com Today, 10:38 am
       
    • Questionable Saturday
      Nylander (undisclosed) said "I don't know" when asked Friday if he was playing in Game 4 versus Boston on Saturday, Jonas Siegel of The Athletic reports.

      Advice: Nylander was a full participant at practice Friday, including skating on the first power play. The Maple Leafs are really missing Nylander, who has sat out the first three games of the series. Nylander ended the regular season with 40 goals and 98 points in 82 games. He should be considered a game-time decision ahead of Saturday's tilt in Toronto. Rotowire.com Today, 10:00 am
       
    • Available for Friday
      Myers (illness) is expected to draw back into the lineup for Game 3 against Nashville on Friday, per Adam Kimelman of NHL.com.

      Advice: Myers had five goals, 29 points, 77 PIM, 110 hits and 136 blocks in 77 contests during the regular season. He missed Tuesday's 4-1 Game 2 loss to Nashville because of the illness. Now that Myers is healthy, he'll probably serve on the second pairing while Noah Juulsen might be scratched. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 1:05 pm
       
    • Falls to Boston in Game 3
      Samsonov stopped 30 of 33 shots in Wednesday's 4-2 loss to the Bruins, with Boston's final goal of Game 3 getting scored into an empty net.

      Advice: Jeremy Swayman and Samsonov were both perfect in the first period and still had a 1-1 goaltending duel going headed into the second intermission, but the Bruins pulled away after Jake DeBrusk notched a power-play tally just 67 seconds into the final frame. Samsonov has given up nine goals on 86 shots through the first three games of the playoffs, and with Toronto down 2-1 in the series, he might need to come up big in Game 4 on Saturday to keep his team in the series, Rotowire.com Yesterday, 8:23 am
       
    • Downs Leafs again
      Swayman made 28 saves during Wednesday's Game 3 in a 4-2 win over the Maple Leafs.

      Advice: After a scoreless first period, Swayman got beaten by Matthew Knies in the second frame and Tyler Bertuzzi in the third, but Brad Marchand and the Bruins took control in the final 20 minutes of the contest. Boston has maintained its goalie rotation to begin the playoffs, which could lead to Linus Ullmark being between the pipes for Game 4 on Saturday, but Swayman is making a case to take over the full-time job by going 2-0 and allowing only three goals on 66 shots in his first two postseason outings.

    • Travels with team
      Demko (knee) joined the Canucks for their trip to Nashville for Games 3 and 4 despite being labeled week-to-week, Dan Murphy of Sportsnet reports Thursday.

      Advice: Given Demko's week-to-week timeline, his presence on the trip is likely more about being around the team and perhaps helping Casey DeSmith in an off-ice capacity than him potentially returning to action soon. Another update on Demko will likely surface once he's upgraded to day-to-day. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 8:14 am
       
    • Records helper
      Foegele notched an assist, two shots on goal, four hits and a minus-2 rating in Wednesday's 5-4 overtime loss to the Kings in Game 2.

      Advice: Foegele has a goal and an assist through the first two games of the playoffs. He helped out on a Brett Kulak tally in the first period of this contest. Foegele has added seven shots on net, six hits and a minus-2 rating through the first two games of the series. The 28-year-old winger will have upside in DFS as long as he remains alongside Leon Draisaitl on the second line. Rotowire.com Wednesday, 11:39 pm
       
    • Tallies in win
      Doughty scored a goal on three shots in Wednesday's 5-4 overtime win over the Oilers in Game 2.

      Advice: Doughty got loose on a breakaway and converted for the Kings' third goal of the contest. The defenseman has two points, four shots on net, two hits and three blocked shots over two playoff contests. Doughty should continue to see massive minutes in all situations, so there will be chances for him to produce steady offense. Rotowire.com Wednesday, 10:56 pm
       
    • Not playing Wednesday
      Nylander (undisclosed) is not on the ice for warmups, indicating he won't play in Game 3 versus the Bruins on Wednesday, David Alter of The Hockey News reports.

      Advice: Nylander has been a game-time call throughout the playoffs, but he'll miss his third straight contest to open the Maple Leafs' first-round series. The 27-year-old's next chance to play is Saturday's Game 4 -- he may benefit from having an extra day to try to shake off the injury. Rotowire.com Wednesday, 3:34 pm
